A letter to the House of Representatives signed by 72 Democrats insists the United States take in 130,000 Syrian refugees. Representatives Conyers and Lofgren, in a separate statement, want 200,000 refugees.
Representatives John Conyers and Zoe Lofgren want the United States to take in 200,000 refugees and they want 100,000 of that number to be from Syria.The fact that they can’t be vetted is of no consequence to them.
“It is time for the United States to join the global community for a humanitarian response,” the two lawmakers said. “We should do our part by admitting 200,000 refugees, with 100,000 reserved for refugees from Syria.”
“The president wants to surge thousands of Syrian refugees into the United States, in spite of consistent intelligence community and federal law enforcement warnings that we do not have the intelligence needed to vet individuals from the conflict zone,” said House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Michael McCaul.
