Imagine entering lottery + winning jackpot!💰Imagine going to redeem ticket but authority telling you there’s no priority to pay you. 😞
Now imagine jackpot was path to America dream 🇺🇸 + authority saying no priority was @JoeBiden.
That’s the #DV2021 story.
The @StateDept has filed the most recent #dv2021 statistics in #GoodluckvBiden. For all of the FY2021, @TravelGov has scheduled only 6,018 cases. Normally, KCC schedules more than 8,000 cases in a single month! Pathetic and unlawful. See you in court, @JoeBiden.
"The months ahead could determine whether the U.S. makes good on its promise to recipients, or again turn its back on immigrants."

"[A]nother amendment ... allows unused diversity lottery visas, employment visas and family-based visas from FY 2020 and 2021 to remain available in FY 2022 and remain until they are used."#projectvoyager#dv2021#dv2020 https://t.co/1jzRKQ6Pv7
The Keeping Our Promise Act, which ensures diversity visa winners are able to receive their visas, was included as an amendment in the @DHSgov spending bill. Thank you @RepGraceMeng for your leadership pushing this amendment & @RepJudyChu for your partnership on this bill.
Here is a list of all the amendments that just passed through the Committee.
The biggest deal? @RepGraceMeng's amendment that recaptures every FY2020 & FY2021 employment-based, family-based, and diversity visa which went unused due to COVID disruption.
