Trump Ends Obama Program That Lets Families of Filipino WWII Veterans Stay in the U.S.


The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced its intention to terminate a parole program that intends to help Filipino World War II veterans and their families.

In an op-ed for The Hill published on Nov. 5., retired Major General Antonio Taguba has called out the decision to terminate the Filipino WWII Veterans Parole program.

“This year, the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services issued a notice that it intended to terminate a program intended to support our veterans, known as the Filipino World War II Veterans Parole Program,” Taguba said in his piece. “The same government that recognized the ‘bravery, valor, and dedication’ of the Filipino World War II veterans and announced that it was ‘forever indebted’ to them is now turning its back on them once more.”

The parole program, which was announced by former President Barrack Obama in 2014, allows family members of Filipino WWII veterans who have approved I-130 family-based petitions to enter the country as they wait for their visas to become available.

He doesn't come up with horrible ways to screw people over all by himself.

Kicking WWII vets to the curb. Really?

“The Filipino World War II Veterans Parole Program was created to support those who bravely defended the United States during the war. There is no honor in ending it.”

There is no honor in some people, period.
