Yes, the Dominican Republic played a notable role in providing refuge to Jews during the Holocaust. In the early 1930s, under the leadership of President Rafael Trujillo, the Dominican Republic offered to resettle Jewish refugees, allowing around 800 Jews to immigrate to the country. While the initiative was motivated by various factors, including Trujillo's desire to populate and develop the region, it provided a safe haven for those fleeing persecution in Europe. However, the overall number of Jewish refugees helped was relatively small compared to the vast number who needed assistance during that time.
Unwanted additions to the ranks of the unemployed . . . I think.

With high unemployment in the 1930s almost all countries restricted the number of refugees that they accepted. For example, in Britain refugees had to have a financial guarantee (from themselves, family, friends or a charity) that they would not become a burden on the public ... Since, after 1933-34, it was very difficult for Jews to take money out of Nazi Germany, this created problems.
During the 1930s they were kicked out of their jobs and expelled from universities. Their properties and stores were vandalized; and Hitler made no secret of his desire to crush them.
The rise of Nazi Germany and the implementation of anti-Semitic laws in the 1930s led to widespread persecution of Jewish people, prompting many to flee Europe before World War II. The situation worsened during the Holocaust, when millions were systematically murdered, causing a desperate exodus of Jewish refugees seeking safety in other countries.
