Geee Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 Townhall: Yesterday the White House announced the United States will take in at least 10,000 Syrian refugees under instruction from President Obama. "The United States, at the direction of the United States, has played a leading role in addressing the dire humanitarian crisis in the Middle East and North Africa," White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said Thursday during the daily briefing. "One thing that the United States can do is to begin to let more Syrian refugees into the United States. This year, this fiscal year that will end this month, the United States is on track to take in about 1500 Syrian refugees. The president has directed his team to scale up that number next year and he's informed his team he would like them to accept, at least make preparations, for 10,000 refugees." Chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee Michael McCaul is expressing grave concerns about the move and is warning that the U.S. doesn't have the systems in place through Homeland Security or the FBI to properly vet refugees coming from the terrorism hotspots of Syria and Iraq.

Draggingtree Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Thursday, September 10, 2015 Never Forget The Lessons of the Past The President wants to scale up resettlement of Syrian refugees next year to at least 10,000 Why can't we assist with resettlement in Arab countries near Syria so they can go home when eventually there is peace? Why would we want to bring them here? http://evilbloggerlady.blogspot.com/2015/09/never-forget-lessons-of-past.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
