Say You Support Continuing the Refugee Program that Promises to Resettle Syrian Refugees

In terms of the Syrian refugee situation we are now facing, now is not the time for us to succumb to racism and bigotry. In this moment, it is particularly important that we not allow ourselves to be divided by the anti-immigrant hysteria that Republican presidential candidates are ginning up.

When hundreds of thousands of people have lost everything and have nothing left but the shirts on their backs, we should not turn our backs on these refugees escaping violence in the Middle East. Of course we have to investigate the backgrounds of people coming into the country -- and we will -- but to suggest that we would even turn away orphans is incredible.

Support continuing the refugee program that promises to resettle 10,000 Syrians, mostly women and children, who are escaping violence in their home country.

This can and should be a huge win for us. Anyone who listens to actual journalism has already heard many times how this would be a far more difficult and unlikely way for a terrorist to successfully infiltrate us than simply going thru standard immigration. The rest is just fear mongering. We owe it to these people to become vocal supporters!
