House votes for bill making Syrian refugee admission almost impossible - GoFuckYourself.com

wehateporn · 11-19-2015, 12:24 PM

The US House of Representatives has voted on a bill that sharply increases the security screening of Syrian and Iraqi refugees, effectively blocking President Barack Obama's refugee settlement plan.

The final vote was 289 in favor, with 137 opposed. Some 48 Democrats, a quarter of the party?s representatives in the House, broke ranks and voted in favor of the bill. Only three Republicans were against.

Following the terrorist attacks in Paris, opposition to hosting Syrian refugees in the US has grown in many states. The US was planning to receive 30,000 refugees from Syria in 2016, after hundreds of thousands flooded Europe this summer. Now 31 states say they would put a halt on their resettlement or even stop it completely, citing terror concerns.

Two of the terrorists involved in the November 13 Paris terror attacks got into Europe as refugees.

House Resolution 4038, the 'American SAFE Act of 2015', was sponsored Republican lawmakers Mike McCaul (R-Texas) and Richard Hudson (R-North Carolina). The bill requires top US security officials (FBI, Homeland Security and Director of National Intelligence) to certify that every refugee admitted to the US ?does not represent a security threat,? according to McCaul, chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee.

Fear mongering wins the day!!!!!!!

i'm all for proper screening of refugees.

and the BO WH has admitted the current vetting process is problematic.

why any American would not want thorough verification of ME refugees entering USA is beyond adult logic.

Germany will take anyone and everyone. Apparently.

Which has already proven to be bullshit. Why Angela Merkel isn't being hounded for her words and actions the past weeks and months is astonishing...

fait accompli

Establishing and enforcing a ''zone of safety'' in the immediate area, outside of the kill zone surroundings, of the Daesh insurgency should become world military policy.
