The Diversity Lottery program promotes diversity and we drive our economy through legal immigration.
The Trump administration stopped processing Diversity cases using the pandemic as an excuse to achieve the goal of blocking diversity visa program.
Federal Judge Mehta ordered the government to process DV2020 cases in September, and several thousand visas were issued. The Trump administration blocked those people again extending the immigrant ban.
Furthermore the Biden administration should immediately instruct KCC and the embassies to process DV2021 cases as "mission critical" cases because time will run out for these cases due to inaction.
We ask that President Biden removes the ban to help DV2020 visa holders AND instructs the KCC to get working on DV2021 cases.
