Congress is once again pushing to legalize tens of thousands of Afghans

 by Edward Ulrich, September 10, 2022


The “Afghan Adjustment Act” is being touted in Congress once again, which is designed to give tens of thousands of recent Afghan evacuees a quick path to permanent residency in the U.S. and then potentially citizenship, with the political Establishment’s idea being to push the agenda through as quickly as possible.  A new iteration of the bill includes language that is intended to seem reassuring that the Afghans would be properly vetted, however such vetting is actually usually impossible due to the circumstances of the situation.

[I found the following information in a Jihad Watch article by Daniel Greenfield.]

(Also see this article for information about the original “Afghan Adjustment Act,” explaining that it is a strategy to push through permanent residency as quickly as possible for the unvetted migrants who were brought during Biden’s 2021 Afghanistan evacuation.)


An August 15, 2022 rollcall.com article explains that the Afghan Adjustment Act is being touted in Congress once again, but this time with claims of having “an additional layer of security vetting for [the] Afghans,” being meant to entice Republicans to vote for the bill.  Following is selected text (Emphasis added):


... However, vetting of most of the evacuees is impossible, since there has never been any records of many of the enemy combatants who have undoubtedly come along with the rest.  Therefore the reassuring language in the new version of the bill is a deception, just like everything else associated with the Afghanistan airlift situation.


Additionally the article says:


... However those situations are different because those people who were brought over were not at war with America.  Many of the people brought over in the Afghanistan evacuation were selected by the Taliban at the Kabul airport, as this article explains.
