World Refugee Day reflections from Myra Dahgaypaw, Honorary Delegate
World Refugee Day is a global celebration of the strength, resilience, and hope of people who have experienced forced displacement. We honor them and stand alongside our communities and partners in recognizing the human value of each person seeking safety.
Refugee Congress strongly condemns the Trump administration’s sweeping new travel ban targeting individuals from 19 countries, many of which are Muslim-majority or home to vulnerable populations in crisis. This unjust and discriminatory policy is a dangerous step backward for our country and a direct assault on the values of fairness, inclusion, and protection for those fleeing persecution, violence, and war.
