Senators aren’t ready to see the U.S. abandon Ukrainian refugees, whether or not President Donald Trump is considering revoking their legal status.
“No, I want to keep these people here,” Sen. Lindsey Graham told NOTUS. “We need to have the war come to an end before we talk about sending people back.”
Reuters reported that the Trump administration was planning to revoke the legal immigration status of nearly 240,000 Ukrainian refugees, leaving them at risk for deportation back to an active war zone. The White House denied the report, calling it “fake news.”
