Caribbean Asylum Deals & Public Health: What’s At Stake and How We Can Help
Two small Caribbean nations—Dominica and Antigua and Barbuda—have agreed to take in people who were seeking asylum in the United States and will now be transferred to these islands instead. These deals come right after new U.S. rules that partially ban entry and impose stricter visa limits on their own citizens.
Both countries are tiny (around 70,000–100,000 people), still rebuilding from recent hurricanes, and already facing housing shortages and high unemployment. Local leaders are openly asking basic questions: How many people are coming? Where will they live? How will they get healthcare and work?
