U.S. District Judge Messitte to hear bid to stop President Trump's refugee resettlement limit
Church World Service, Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service and HIAS — a Jewish nonprofit — filed the lawsuit in Greenbelt, Maryland, on Nov. 21. They are three of the nine national organizations agencies that have agreements with the federal government to provide housing and other services for refugees.
Before Trump signed the executive order, state and local officials were “given a voice but not a veto in where refugees would be resettled,” agency lawyers wrote in a court filing.“The Refugee Act does not permit state or local governments to bar refugees from resettling in their jurisdictions entirely. Indeed, Congress considered and specifically rejected the possibility that the executive could delegate these delicate decisions to state and local officials,” agency attorneys wrote.
