exas, which has taken in more refugees than any state in the nation over the past year, is threatening to leave the federal refugee program if the Obama administration does not meet its security demands.
The dispute comes as the Obama administration has announced a new goal of resettling 110,000 refugees in the United States in the coming year, including an unspecified increase in the number from Syria.
n a letter Wednesday to Robert Carey, director of the federal Office of Refugee Resettlement, the Texas Health and Human Services Commission said that unless Washington "unconditionally" approves the state's new plan controlling placements in Texas by September 30, the agency will "exit" the program.
Without an agreement, Texas would join Kansas and New Jersey in withdrawing state participation in the refugee program over the federal government's vetting procedures to screen out potential terrorists.

Closing the barn door way too late; how many terrorists do you think they already have??
I can think of a whole bunch of federal things we should exit from, but this would be a good start

LOL Not only has this already been posted, it’s at the TOP of the breaking news sidebar!
And the NGOs that “process” the refugees are making big bucks from us.
Apologies for the duplicate post. I did a search but my query did not reveal this duplication.
No worries. The search widget is less than 100% reliable on its good days. I was just poking fun given the breaking news thing.
Which is about 1/2 of TOTAL yearly immigration to the U.S. from 1924 to 1965.
Now it's just the number of mad bombers with hijabs coming to live with us every year.

Interesting characterization...unfortunately, likely accurate too.
I don’t see what good that will do...what is to prevent a ‘refugee’ from resettling in, say, New Mexico on Oct. 1st and then going into Texas on Oct. 2nd?
STOP IMPORTING JIHAD
“Closing the barn door way too late; how many terrorists do you think they already have??”
Frankly, if Hillary wins (steals) the election, we should just cut to the chase and exit the former US of A. They want to keep us? Well, we have about 70 million guns and a great curiosity as to why.
God Bless Texas!!!
Per capita Amarillo is said to have the most .... thats “per capita”.

If I’m forced to go to or through Amarillo. I add a few magazines to my concealed carry rig.
At least Texas gets it. We blew over one trillion on welfare in FY 2015. We have all this crap going on in the inner cities and Odumbo has our population over 300 million now. These Syrians are military age. Certainly Congress cannot be this dumb. They have to be in on the grease. Only Trump can clean this thieving and lying up.
