flag Congo refugee's family reunion in the US derailed by Trump's halted "join-to-follow" program.

flag A Congolese refugee, separated from her family for eight years, faced significant obstacles in reuniting with them in the US after a perilous 2,300-mile journey through southern Africa at age 15. flag Her efforts were derailed when President Trump halted the "join-to-follow" refugee program, which connects refugees with family members already in the US. flag The woman, one of about 70 refugees to enter the US since Trump took office, is part of a lawsuit challenging the suspension of the program. flag The order left thousands stranded and forced resettlement agencies to lay off workers. flag Despite these challenges, she remains hopeful for eventual reunification.
