Human Rights First is commemorating the Refugee Protection Act with a new video, featuring a bi-partisan group of commentators.  I particularly like the quote from Zbigniew Brzezinski, that helping refugees is not only true to America’s moral values, but it has enriched our nation.  From the HRF website:

The 30th Anniversary of this landmark piece of legislation offers an occasion to highlight the United States achievements under the Refugee Act, honor the contributions refugees and their children have made to the diverse fabric of American society, and evaluate the ways in which policymakers can work together to overcome the current challenges in the U.S. refugee resettlement and asylum systems.

The Refugee Protection Act of 2010 has been introduced to address some of the “current challenges in the U.S. refugee resettlement and asylum systems.”
