The legal protections for approximately 120,000 Ukrainian refugees in the United States, who arrived under the Biden administration's Uniting for Ukraine program, are set to expire on August 15, 2025. The Trump administration has allowed the two-year humanitarian parole status granted to these refugees to lapse without renewal, which could lead to tens of thousands facing arrest and deportation. Meanwhile, the Trump administration is reportedly considering imposing a refugee cap of 40,000, with a particular focus on resettling white South African refugees, a move that could alter the longstanding bipartisan consensus on the U.S. refugee program. In addition, there are reports of Palestinian refugees entering the U.S. through airports in San Francisco, Houston, and other major cities, despite previous administration statements that the U.S. would not accept them. Some members of Congress, including Rep. Chip Roy, have expressed concern over Palestinian arrivals, particularly children from Gaza who obtained U.S. visas and were flown into Dallas, Texas. Videos have surfaced showing Palestinian families reportedly performing chants associated with Hamas upon arrival in Houston, raising security concerns among some lawmakers and commentators.
