US to Bar Members of "Communist Party or any other totalitarian party" From Immigration

On Oct 2, 2020, the US Citizen and Immigration Serives (#USCIS) in their Policy Manual announced an "inadmissibility based on membership in or affiliation with the Communist Party or any other totalitarian party". The new policy is likely to prevent Chinese Communist Party members from obtaining citizenship in the U.S.

Meanwhile, according to the Press Release of the US Department of State on Sept 20, 2020, the United States anticipates receiving more than 300,000 new refugees and asylum claims in Fiscal Year 2021. It is the first time Hong Kong is listed in the proposed refugee resettlement program.

The press release writes the aim of the program is to "assist refugees and other displaced people as close to their homes as possible until they can safely and voluntarily return to rebuild their lives, their communities, and their countries."
