North Dakota Refugee Resettlement Program is Tabled After Mass Protests

[Swordsmyth]

Ann Corcoran of Refugee Resettlement Watch reported that Cass County in North Dakota is planning on voting for more refugee resettlement. However, it is facing several obstacles at the moment.
North Dakota Republican Governor Doug Burgum took a lukewarm approach to the resettlement issue by allowing this practice to continue so long as local jurisdictions approve.
With Cass County originally set on approving resettlement, Burgum would have likely let the refugee resettlement go through in North Dakota. As Corcoran notes, “Unless the governor changes his mind, North Dakota taxpayers will be continuing to prop up a 4-decades-old federal program that was never supposed to be a burden on local and state taxpaying citizens.”

However, this move was met with considerable resistance. Citizens of Bismarck “came out in force” to get the county commission to reconsider bringing in more refugees. The commissioners ended up deciding to table the decision for the time being.

Ya. That's what they always do in the face of mass resistance. Then they wait a bit and do it anyway.

Hopefully they will back down completely:


Because so many people flooded the county meeting, there was not enough space to fit people inside, So, the commission ended up postponing the matter until they could find a larger venue in the near future.

Resistance is futile, if ND doesn't resettle them other states will. They unlike illegal immigrants have automatic pathway to citizenship and about 5 yrs they will be voting. I mean only if we had a president who will stop creating new refugees(conflict and economic ones), start practicing non interventionism(not just with Israel) and like ND, stop accepting refugees.

They should go to the politicians who are preaching more and more diversity of course. Politicians that are preaching should practice what they are preaching.

Trump has stopped creating new refugees and there are always "refugees" whether the US creates them or not.
And Trump is reducing (and hopefully working up to eliminating) how many we take.
