White House officials will reportedly convene a high-level meeting tomorrow to discuss the FY 2020 refugee resettlement ceiling.

cis.org/Rush/Resettlem…
- Resettlement is just the tip of the iceberg, there are 26m refugees worldwide.

- Resettlement should not be the "sole barometer" to measure humanitarian efforts.

- Resettlement is crucial if applied properly.

cis.org/Rush/Resettlem…
The Trump administration can get the resettlement program back on the right track:

Resettle all urgent and emergency cases submitted by UNHCR worldwide next year while assisting millions of refugees and displaced populations abroad.

@jdawsey1 @eilperin @brady_dennis I was a proud INR analyst for nine years. I often appears before Congress to testify in closed session. Never was my analysis subjected to political review. INR is NOT a policy shop. It is an analytic arm. It is absurd that @WhiteHouse or @WHNSC would have any role screening it.
@jdawsey1 @eilperin @brady_dennis @WhiteHouse @WHNSC @whitehouse and Trump can have any policy position they want on climate change. They can even bury their heads in the sand and claim it is all a “Chinese hoax.” But they should not be allowed to supppress expert analysis, or skew it to fit their policy objectives.
@jdawsey1 @eilperin @brady_dennis @WhiteHouse @WHNSC Schoonover shpuld have been allowed to submit his expert testimony on he dangers posed to our national security by climate change. INR was one of the only places that warned Bush about the dangers of invading Iraq. INR was first intel agency to see truth/folly of Vietnam War.

"Another possible reason to hold a meeting of senior WH officials [Bolton] at Langley is if there's disagreement about what the intelligence shows. Then-VP Cheney frequently traveled to CIA to grill analysts...[allegedly] to cherry-pick intel suggesting Iraq had WMDs."
