“Trump has set his sights on abolishing the Diversity Visa lottery. This is a program that brings up to 50,000 immigrants from underrepresented countries to the U.S. each year. He has disparaged the system as a “horror show” and repeatedly misrepresents how the lottery is administered, while demonizing and insulting with racist overtones those who receive the visas. Diversity preferences are essential to preserving a robust and vibrant immigration system. As president, I will reaffirm our core values and preserve the critical role of diversity preferences to ensure immigrants everywhere have the chance to legally become U.S. citizens. “
Joe Biden, 46th & Current President of The United States
THE BIDEN PLAN FOR SECURING OUR VALUES AS A NATION OF IMMIGRANTS
America is a nation that values immigrants. It is and has always been one of our greatest strengths.
We need a president who understands that.

This nation has always strived to serve as a beacon of hope, but Trump has made it clear that he does not believe our country should be a place of refuge.
As president, I’ll recommit to building a more inclusive and welcoming America. #WorldRefugeeDay
