View Comments Wisconsin refugee agencies expect to welcome more refugees into the state in the coming months and years, many likely from Myanmar, as President Joe Biden’s administration lifts restrictive policies on refugee admissions put in place under his predecessor. It could take years, the agencies’ leaders say, to return to the levels of refugee admissions seen in Wisconsin and the rest of the country before Donald Trump became president. “You have to be aware that the systems that were in place to normally assist refugees are not there right now. They’re just gearing up again,” said Alexander Durtka Jr., president and CEO of the International Institute of Wisconsin, one of the four agencies that resettles refugees in Wisconsin.
