Unexpected Urgent Refugee and Migration Needs

Memorandum for the Secretary of State

By the authority vested in me as President by the
Constitution and the laws of the United States,
including section 2(c)(1) of the Migration and Refugee
Assistance Act of 1962 (the ``Act'') (22 U.S.C.
2601(c)(1)), I hereby determine, pursuant to section
2(c)(1) of the Act, that it is important to the
national interest to furnish assistance under the Act,
in an amount not to exceed $70 million from the United
States Emergency Refugee and Migration Assistance Fund,
for the purpose of meeting unexpected urgent refugee
and migration needs related to the U.S. Refugee
Admissions Program, through contributions and other
assistance to international and nongovernmental
organizations funded through the Bureau of Population,
Refugees, and Migration of the Department of State.
Funds will be used by the Department of State to meet
the unexpected urgent need for additional resources
within the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program, in light of
the unprecedented number of refugees in need of
resettlement.

You are authorized and directed to publish this
memorandum in the Federal Register.

THE WHITE HOUSE,

Washington, January 13, 2016
