This is an irrelelvant statement still being thrown up by imbeciles on the left.

And the "vetting" process isn't heavier than it's ever been.  It's just now immigrants are being told they don't have to do it...by clowns on the left in order to get their voting power. Sorry...that goes away now that we are trying to reinstate constitutional law and values.  You should dye your skin....I'll bet that shit is white as a sheet and it makes you angry as hell every morning.  Maybe speak in broken English to help out too.  :lol:

 

Thats your opinion

How the U.S. screens Syrian refugees

Resettling Syrian refugees in the U.S. is a highly debated policy. Hear what the current vetting process is -- and what the U.S. asks refugees to repay

  • 2016 Oct 16
  •  
  • According to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, almost 5 million Syrians have fled to other countries to escape the Syrian civil war. The United States has taken in more than 12,500 of those refugees in the last year, a policy that has created controversy around the country. A majority of U.S. governors have called for a halt to the program.

In the second presidential debate, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump called for “extreme vetting,” of Syrians, saying, “I don’t want to have — with all the problems this country has and all of the problems you see going on — hundreds of thousands of people coming in from Syria when we know nothing about them.”

This week on 60 Minutes, correspondent Bill Whittaker gets an inside look at the United State’s current vetting process for Syrian refugees. In the clip above, Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson explains the step-by-step procedure.

“Of all the different ways to enter this country as an immigrant, doing so as a refugee is probably the most cumbersome and time-consuming,” Johnson says.

He explains that the process begins with United Nations. Long before refugees make the journey to a new home, they are interviewed multiple times by the U.N. for their vital statistics — including where they came from and who they know — and given an iris scan to establish their identity. After that initial assessment, the U.N. then refers refugees to a country for resettlement.

“Of all the different ways to enter this country as an immigrant, doing so as a refugee is probably the most cumbersome and time consuming.” Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson

If that country is the U.S., a State Department resettlement center takes over, runs background checks, and creates a file on the refugee. From there, the Department of Homeland Security, led by specially trained interrogators, conducts additional interviews looking for gaps or inconsistencies in their stories. All that information is then run though U.S. security databases for any red flags. If approved, the refugee goes through medical screening by a team of doctors prior to arriving in the country.  

The entire process, Johnson says, takes between 18 and 24 months.

Gina Kassem oversees the State Department’s refugee resettlement program in North Africa and the Middle East. She says the primary focus is on those in need.

“Mostly we focus on victims of torture, survivors of violence, women-headed households, [and] a lot of severe medical cases,” she says.

According to Kassem, less than half of one percent of those from Syria who resettle in the United States are single young men. Those who are qualify as among the most vulnerable, either because of severe medical needs or minors who don’t have family to support them.

“It is single digits how many single young men would be part of our resettlement program,” Kassem says.

When refugees do arrive in the U.S., they’re expected to repay the government for their plane tickets. As Kassem explains in the clip above, the government asks refugees resettled in the U.S. to repay the fare six months after they arrive, giving them time to find a job. That money then helps additional refugees resettle in the U.S., which encourages the refugees to repay their fare.   

“Because they are indebted to the United States for taking then in,” she says, “they want more people in their situation who are fleeing the violence to be able to take advantage of the program.”

you can't legally get a SS # if your not here legally,  the US government decides whose citizens not a city. 

Can you try to understand what i wrote? I realize the federal govt grants citizenship. But if "cities" want to help immigrants why dont they help them become LEGAL? There is lots they can do to aid in the process. Otherwise they need to deport them. Hope you understand now... :bc:

mc, 

There has been discussions about this......

These people have NO BACKGROUNDS.  There are NO FILES on these refugees. 

This is why you fall for this bullshit and say they are vetted.  Well, they are vetted, but it's against an empty file.  THEY ALL PASS.

How many failures would it take for you to acknowledge that the process is flawed?
