President Obama recently declared that the U.S. will accept 10,000 refugees from Syria. The U.S. has been under pressure from its Syrian allies to help out with the crisis in which 3 Million refugees have fled Syria in the past year. Those in favor of accepting refugees believe that the U.S. has a duty to join its allies in Europe and accept at least 10,000 refugees. Opponents argue that the U.S. should stay out of this crisis and accepting refugees from the Middle East leads to a risk of letting terrorists into our borders.

Yes. But only after an extensive background check. No one else other than that one person that was confirmed.

Background check but not continued monitoring

@8NYQPHWLibertarian4yrs4Y
Stop supporting the wars making the refugees
@8NVSM69Libertarian4yrs4Y
Yes, but after background checks and at no expense to taxpayer.
@93G2RP73yrs3Y
Yes, but the government should spend any money on getting them to the United States or taking care of them
@8H9ZM8H4yrs4Y
Yes, only Christians and Yazidis because they being killed because of their faith.
@92MDVFR3yrs3Y
Asylum? Yes. Finance their expenses once they arrive in America? No. We currently have hundreds of thousands of homeless citizens in the USA, so funding foreign nationals seeking refugee status within our borders needs to be addressed by the private sector, not the government.
@8R7N6V44yrs4Y
Absolutely. If they’re willing to work and contribute to society.
@8XSXMM63yrs3Y
Yes, but limit the number of refugees in all countries based on our economy and how many refugees we have already allowed into the country. The US can only allow so many refugees.
