Guided by Jewish values and experience, HIAS is working to address the global refugee crisis. We protect refugees and displaced persons throughout the world, helping them to build new lives in safety and with dignity.
Why? Because as long as there are still places where it is a crime to be who you are, we have a mandate to be who we are.
Founded as the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society in 1881 to assist Jews fleeing pogroms in Russia and Eastern Europe, HIAS has touched the life of nearly every Jewish family in America and now welcomes all who have fled persecution….
Though precious few refugees were rescued during World War II, due to the restrictive National Origins Quota of 1924, HIAS provided immigration and refugee services to those who were. It was not until 1965, through the aggressive work of HIAS, that the National Origins Quota was replaced with a new law, liberalizing decades of restrictive admissions policies.

Desert Fox asks: How long has it been since the U.S. has had an “anybody and everybody” immigration policy? You’re now making excuses for a trumptard murderer?
The year was 1965 when LBJ and the Democrats ended the quota system for immigration and opened the floodgates to the world. The USA lost control of who and how many may enter the USA. The obvious, and most egregious, end result is the damned caravan of young men marching towards our Southern border.
Democrats always end up making things worse. IMO
