In FY 2020, only 3% of the 4,000 spots reserved for US affiliated Iraqis in the refugee resettlement program were filled. Wait list is 100,000+.
At the current rate, Ghafur’s wait time would be 1,960 years.

Iraqis like Ghafur have put their lives on the line twice over: first in their service to U.S. military operations overseas, and again in waiting for promised help that may never come.
