GARDEN CITY — Leaders in the effort to resettle Afghan refugees in Kansas say they are hopeful a law aimed at helping those refugees will pass. U.S. Sen. Jerry Moran announced this month the reintroduction of the Afghan Adjustment Act. The bill, which was first presented two years ago, would provide immigration assistance to Afghans who aided U.S. and allied military forces during the 20-year war on terrorism in that region. Allied militaries withdrew from Afghanistan in August 2021, leading to a mass evacuation of Afghans from their home nation as the Taliban retook the country.
