U.S. President Donald Trump has directed a comprehensive review of asylum approvals and Green Cards issued under former President Joe Biden’s administration following a shooting incident involving an Afghan immigrant in Washington, D.C. The suspect, who allegedly shot two National Guard members, had entered the U.S. in 2021 under a resettlement program and was granted asylum earlier this year. In response, the Department of Homeland Security announced an immediate suspension of immigration requests from Afghan nationals and expanded the review to include all asylum cases approved during Biden’s tenure. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Director Joseph Edlow confirmed that Green Cards issued to citizens from 19 countries under Trump’s travel ban will also be reexamined. The move is part of Trump’s broader immigration crackdown since returning to office, which includes reassessing refugee admissions from the Biden era, potentially affecting over 230,000 individuals.
