Muslim Migrants to Obtain the Majority of Diversity Lottery Visas
[Center for Immigration Studies] Recently released State Department estimates indicate that a majority of those coming to the U.S. via the Diversity Visa Lottery during the next fiscal year (2023) will be Muslims, despite the fact that adherents of that faith account for less than a quarter of the world's population..This is up sharply from the FY 2020 level of about 18 percent, as we reported earlier this year. Given our government’s reluctance to gather data along religious lines, this information is teased out of statistics dealing with the country of origin of the diversity visa holders. A more precise statement would be that, out of 43,129 expected diversity visas, 21,000 will come from five Muslim-majority nations (Algeria, Egypt, Iran, Morocco, and Uzbekistan), while 22,129 will come from the rest of the world, or so the most recent State Department Visa Bulletin tells us. Funny how the thumb is on the scale of a supposedly random lottery when the Obama 1,2,3 admins are in power. Posted by: Snash Shairt9621 2022-09-27 |
