Trump Policy Halts Resettlement of Persecuted Christians, Advocates Warn

Original: President Trump Bans Christians Fleeing Persecution: Matthew Soerens on the Collapse of Refugee Resettlement and Why Churches Should Care

Matthew Soerens, a refugee resettlement advocate, says the Trump administration's suspension of the US refugee programme has effectively blocked Christians fleeing persecution abroad, despite the president's stated concern for persecuted believers. He argues the collapse of resettlement leaves vulnerable religious minorities stranded and is urging American churches to respond and press for the programme's restoration.

Why now: The suspension of refugee admissions under a president who pledged to protect persecuted Christians has created a striking contradiction drawing faith-community criticism.
