Loading ...According to a report last week from Bloomberg, the White House is even refusing to cooperate with fellow Democrat governors who are open to accepting refugees, but merely want pertinent security information shared with local law enforcement agencies.
On Tuesday, several governors from both parties took part in a conference call with the White House where they urged administration officials to share more information about the refugees with them, such as notifications when refugees are settled in their state and access to the classified information obtained about individual refugees through the vetting process.
However, the Obama administration declined to make any extra efforts to assist and inform the states, even when pressed by putative allies like California’s ultra-progressive Gov. Jerry Brown.
“There was a real sense of frustration from all the governors that there is just a complete lack of transparency and communication coming from the federal government,” declared an unnamed GOP official who took part in the call.
According to Bloomberg, Florida Gov. Rick Scott asked bluntly if states could opt out of accepting the refugees, and the administration said “no.”
The administration’s excuse to avoid assisting the states is that there is no process in place for sharing information with them, and the White House sees no reason to develop one.
The truth is that the administration has no intentions of sharing any information because it simply doesn’t have very much information on the Syrian refugees, due to the chaotic and lawless situations many of them are fleeing, chaos and lawlessness being exploited by the radical Islamists.
