Our first priority is the safety of the American people, including the people of the State of Hawaiâi.
The U.S. accepts refugees, including Syrians, only after they are subjected to the most vigorous and highest level of screening and security vetting.
As President Obama has said â slamming the door in their face would be a betrayal of our values. Hawaiâi and our nation have a long history of welcoming refugees impacted by war and oppression. Hawaiâi is the Aloha State, known for its tradition of welcoming all people with tolerance and mutual respect. I am confident that our state will work closely with the federal government to ensure that appropriate resources and support are available before any refugees arrive in Hawaiâi.
â Hawaiâi Governor David Ige
This man is a fool
I like that plan. The least we can do for the state that gave us Dumbama is to give them several hundred thousand murderous Islamic nut jobs.
Hawaii residents ; Please call this man’s office , repeatedly , until he gets the people’s message :
(808) 586-0034
he’s malleable
Thanks !
OK, then send all the Syrian refugees to Hawaii...every last one...at least they’ll be contained to a cluster of islands...it would be tough for them to go elsewhere in the USA...so, thanks, Hawaii, for taking one for the team!
The same Hawaii with a homeless problem? Liberals are ate up with stupid.
Will they even give them a lei and a kiss at the airport?
Perfect send them all to HI.
Hawaii’s been complaining about their homeless for years, so it looks like they have that problem solved since they want more.
1. Hawaii
Brillant. An island is a perfect place to be trapped with questionable people.
What a freakin' moron!
Obama will not send the Syrian refugees (hidden Terrorist) to his own State! Look at the map and see how many were sent to DC, that’s right none!
The homeless are taking over Hawaii and we’re going to offer Syrians free housing??????????????????????????????

DC offices are open until 6 pm EST.
Call your reps and tell them not one Syrian refugee is to be admitted to the USA.
You do not want another 9/11.
You do not want another Paris ...this time on our soil.
For the morons in DC who say we need to take our fair share of refugees, our fair share was 7,000 dead men and women killed in Iraq and Afghanistan, and 50,000 wounded warriors.
That was our fair share.
The Arabs with all their oil money can take care of their brothers.
Not our problem.
Make the call. It is time the jerks in DC are reminded who the bosses of this country really are.
Mutual respect?
I think I've discovered the flaw in your thinking.
Why not. This damn State is all screwed up anyway. After these Syrian refugees turns out to be a few ISIS, hope they don’t shoot and bomb them up.
I’ve never gone for a vacation to that land. I will probably never undertake such travelling now.
Well past time to cut Hawaii loose from the union.
I hope they have a nice big luau for them on their arrival.
From the article: “The governor says “Hawaii is the Aloha State, known for its tradition of welcoming all people . . .”
Eh governor, Aloha also means goodbye.
