        This is so wrong. The number of refugees admitted should depend on necessity and humanity, not artificial "ceilings."

        As a country we should be ashamed. Trump & his cohorts brutal & dismissive attitude toward the millions of people in dire need will weaken us as a country & make us an embarrassment to the rest of the world. & don’t forget the hundreds of kids still separated from their parents.

        @SecPompeo is another bloated racist swine enforcer of the illegitimate trump agenda targeting immigrants and refugees from countries that are nonwhite so as to increase the white nationalist sector of his support! He still doesn’t realize he is undermining very fabric of USA

        Pompeo is not a good or courageous man nor does he have a Spine with which to stand up to most corrupt incompetent unfit venal human ever to reside in @WhiteHouse! Hope we make sure he doesn’t have any future after this disastrous administration is over& relegated to trash bin

        Does that mean we are only going to create 30,000 refugees this year? What war are we going to quit?

        You have got to stop putting these refugees in big cities. They will never assimilate into our culture that way. Spread them out into small towns with community colleges.

        Look up the Hmong people and see where they settled. Or Somali refugees. It’s not just in cities.

        I know where the Somali are. They were mostly sent to Kansas. I saw them with my own eyes. & let me tell you. Those dairy farmers tried everything in their power to get them placed in the isolated country side as slaves , instead of the the towns with community colleges.
