The US House of Representatives has passed a bill to support efforts to transfer Washington's Afghan colleagues to the United States.

The bill calls for the appointment of a coordinator at the US State Department to handle efforts to relocate Washington's Afghan allies.

According to the text of the "Bill Designating the Coordinator of Efforts to Relocate Afghans 2024" which was published on the website of the Congress, "the relocation and resettlement of eligible Afghan allies, facilitating the exit from Afghanistan for US citizens and people who have permanent residence in the US", are among the responsibilities of this coordinator.

In addition, according to the bill, the coordinator of the US State Department will support the efforts of this ministry and the US government for the resettlement and relocation of Afghans.

The draft of this bill was presented to the US House of Representatives by Dina Titus, a representative of the state of Nevada.

This bill was approved two days ago with 334 votes in favour, 63 votes against and 36 abstentions.

"I am proud to have spearheaded this bill to ensure that we can protect eligible Afghan allies who have helped the United States and are facing threats from the Taliban," Titus wrote on her X account after the law was passed.

The US House of Representatives approves this bill while thousands of Afghan immigrants eligible to be transferred to the US are waiting to be transferred to the United States in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Qatar and Albania. These immigrants, some of whom have been expelled from Afghanistan for more than three years, are worried about canceling the process of transferring immigrants when Donald Trump takes office.

Currently, the process of transferring Afghan immigrants to America continues slowly.
