US may raise refugee cap for white S. Africans

The Trump administration is considering raising the U.S. refugee cap by 10,000 to admit more white South Africans, citing claims of racial persecution. The current cap is 7,500, and the proposal would represent a significant expansion of a refugee program specifically for this group. South Africa's government has denied the claims of persecution. The consideration, reported by Reuters, highlights a continued focus on immigration policy by the administration.
