The State Department's Welcome Corps program allows Americans to sponsor refugees, providing support for their first 90 days in the U.S. The program, started under the Biden administration, has seen success with over 15,000 Americans applying to sponsor about 7,000 refugees from various countries. However, critics raise concerns about national security risks and social integration issues, questioning the vetting process and the pressure on communities amidst a migrant crisis. The controversy also extends to doubts about the program's effectiveness in assisting refugees with cultural integration, amidst other similar programs aimed at bringing individuals from countries like Ukraine, Cuba, Venezuela, Haiti, and Nicaragua into the U.S.
