Joe Biden’s Administration Resettling 4,000 Afghans Across U.S. Every Week

President Joe Biden’s administration is resettling about 4,000 Afghans across 46 states in the United States every week, his officials confirmed.

During a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing this week, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said the administration is resettling thousands of Afghans every week as part of its massive resettlement operation.

“We’re resettling, working closely with the agency, just over an average of about 4,000 Afghan nationals a week,” Mayorkas said. “Our timeline … between December and February to complete the resettlement of the Afghan nationals here … we’re very focused on jobs, on housing, on funding.”

The administration is hoping to bring close to 100,000 Afghans to the U.S., though a plan passed by Congress, including 49 House and Senate Republicans, opens the door for an unlimited amount of Afghan resettlement.
