Tens of thousands of Afghans in U.S. could lose deportation protections unless Congress acts
[CBSnews] Tens of thousands of Afghan refugees who were evacuated to the U.S. after the Taliban...mindless ferocity in a turban... takeover of Afghanistan in 2021 are at risk of losing their work permits and deportation protections this summer unless Congress acts, unpublished government data show. Fewer than 5,000 of the 77,000 Afghans resettled in the U.S. under a special legal process have secured permanent legal status for themselves and their families, with efforts to make them permanent residents floundering in Congress, according to the Department of Homeland Security figures.
