No New Afghan Unknowns
As someone who is attempting to undertake what amounts to a massive industrial engineering problem with the tens of thousands of Afghan refugees and their labor, the dissenting voices against some of my aspirations have finally hit home.
At first the Biden Administration went all in by advocating doubling or tripling the number of random Afghan immigrants that will be flown to America. Some Congressmen pegged my efforts as a pathway for unlimited Green Cards. These policy changes and objections raised have not landed on deaf ears. It is hard enough to succeed in finding a route to self-sufficiency by matching the current Afghan-Americans with available work. And then there are all the national security concerns.
All this has conclusively led me to embrace the policy I call: "No New Afghan Unknowns". If dual-citizen Afghans, Green Card holders, or SIVs and their families want to apply to travel to America, they should definitely be given full consideration. But every shoving and pushing new Afghan unknown? No way. Enough is enough.
