Dear President Trump: 2020 Determination on Refugee Admissions

help as much as you can Thanks

Remember the Statue of Liberty and the inscription she bears.

I feel proud living amongst the people whom doing everything to make lives better, this is the way of making america great again.

"Love one another as I have loved you"

Refugees are our future

In this time of great need we must continue our support of refugees around the world.

These people deserve refuge.

Please allow us to share our American dream by setting the Refugee Admissions ceiling in a thoughtful, just and compassionate manner.

Having worked with Saints Place and Catholic Family Center in resettling refugees for 7 years, I've seen the great gifts they bring and offer our community. Please raise the number of refugees allowed to escape terrible conditions, begin a new life here, contribute to the strength of our nation and to continue living the promises of our forebearers.

We should help all the refugees who need our help to have a better life.

Over 70 million people are displaced worldwide, 25.9 million of whom are refugees and 1.44 million of whom are in need of resettlement in 2020, making the global refugee crisis the worst in human history. We must welcome those feeling violence and persecution. There is no higher moral obligation than to save the life of another.

The work that is done at Catholic Family Center highlights the core of one of the most fundamental promises of our great nation--a fierce dedication to offering safety and opportunity to those who seek refuge at our shores . It serves as an example of what the democratic idea of American goodness at its finest can achieve. As you consider Presidential Determination on Refugee Admissions, please allow our Catholic family Center in Rochester, New York continue with its sacred mission by raising the number of refugees allowed into our country. I know you care and that matters.

"When a stranger sojourns with you in your land, you shall not do him wrong. You shall treat the stranger who sojourns with you as the native among you, and you shall love him as yourself..." Leviticus 19:33-34

Please keep sharing this petition so more people can sign and encourage President trump to allow more refugees to come live in our Rochester and many other communities!!!

The SIVs especially deserve to come!

It is our privilege and duty to help refugees.

To welcome the stranger... that is what the Gospel requires us to do so lets do it.

We are a better community because of our local refugees
