Obama administration officials held a conference call on Tuesday with 34 U.S. governors to discuss the country's refugee program, the White House said, after more than a dozen governors said they would refuse to accept Syrian refugees.

The administration officials assured the governors that the refugees would undergo the most rigorous screening and security vetting of any category of traveler to the United States, the White House said in a statement.

Some of the governors encouraged further communication by the White House to ensure that they are able to better respond to questions from the public about the refugee screening and resettlement process, the White House said.

That is such a relief. Now we don’t have to worry.

Good thing we have Obama in charge of our nation’s safety.

IOW - they will check the database and when the person doesn't show - because the person hasn't had any outside contact that can be traced - they wil say, "Did everything I can with this one, on to the next new inhabitant".
