(Breitbart) More Senate Republicans are getting behind a plan that would give green cards to tens of thousands of Afghans brought to the United States by President Joe Biden’s administration amid allegations of widespread vetting failures.
In the hopes of cramming the green card plan into a year-end spending bill, Sens. Jerry Moran (R-KS) and Roger Wicker (R-MS) joined Sens. Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) and Patrick Leahy (D-VT) this week in backing the Afghan Adjustment Act, which is already sponsored by Sens. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), and Roy Blunt (R-MO), as well as Sens. Chris Coons (D-DE), Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), and Richard Blumenthal (D-CT).
Following the United States Armed Forces’ withdrawal from Afghanistan in August 2021, Biden opened a refugee pipeline that has resettled more than 86,000 Afghans in American communities — many without having been screened or interviewed in person beforehand.
