NC Rep confirms it: The buck stops with him and
others in Congress, by Ann Corcoran on August 24, 2016
I’m not sure
that Rep. Mark Meadows’ goal in holding the town hall in the Ashville area last
night was to direct his constituents right back to him and other members of
Congress when it comes to stopping, slowing, or putting on steroids the UN/US
Refugee Admissions Program, but that is what he did with these comments.
Rep. Mark
Meadows answers questions about refugee program in his district. Will he be one
of the leaders to remove funding for refugee resettlement in funding battles
this fall?
The President,
Obama, can make determinations all he wants about how many refugees the US tax
payer will pay for next year, but it is Congress that supplies the cold hard
cash for the federal agencies (both the US State Department and the Dept. of
Health and Human Services).
Bringing in
large numbers of refugees obviously requires more money! So, the question
this fall will be this: Will Speaker Paul Ryan and the Republicans fully fund
the Obama invasion or not? It is that simple!
Here is the news about the town hall meeting. The
article doesn’t say it, but it sounds like most of those present OPPOSE more
refugees for the US (and none for their community!).
FLAT ROCK, N.C.
— Congressman Mark Meadows held a town hall Tuesday night to discuss efforts to
resettle Syrian refugees in our area.
International
Rescue Committee, a resettlement agency, said it is still looking at Asheville.
Meadows said Saint James Episcopal Church in Hendersonville is backing off the
idea, in part, because of the community reaction. One man said the money was
better spent on Americans. [A
sentiment we hear everywhere.—ed]
“I just feel
that we have enough people now that we have to take care of,” Tom Mcrary Jr.,
from Brevard, said. Meadows explained the money for refugees comes from the U.S. State
Department. Once the money is budgeted to the State Department, it cannot be
moved to another department. Well, Rep. Meadows
don’t give it to the State Department this fall! The State Department doesn’t
grow it on trees, you appropriate it to them!
Meadows informed the crowd refugee
resettlement is a federal program, and state legislators cannot prevent
refugees from coming. But, you can Mr.
Meadows! Will you?
See Refugee program is major issue for November
election! Your member of Congress is home right now (for the next two
weeks) and every one of them is up for re-election. Find them and ask
them if they will be funding Obama’s invasion or not!
