Refugees must repay the US government for their flights - 7 surprising facts about resettlement

President Trump could sign a new executive order as soon as Monday that restricts travel from certain majority-Muslim nations.
The new version, postponed several times, would replace the previous ban, which courts blocked.
The new order is expected to remove Iraq from the list of countries whose citizens would be temporarily barred from entering the US. It also includes some changes to its process of accepting refugees, officials told the Associated Press.
Whereas the original order indefinitely suspended Syrian refugees from entering the US, the new one will bar them for the same 120-day period, as all other groups.
Refugees have long been viewed warily by some Americans who fear they could pose a national-security threat, despite the fact that they undergo a rigorous, years-long screening and resettlement process, and there's no data supporting the concerns.
