Three House Democrats are calling on Secretary of State John Kerry to meet
the administration's stated goal of resettling 10,000 Syrian refugees in the
U.S. before October.
"This need has never been more urgent. As a result of the Syrian civil war,
more than 400,000 civilians have been killed, and more than 4.8 million
people have been forced to flee their homes," wrote Reps. Seth Moulton (D-
Mass.), David Cicilline (D-N.J.) and Bill Pascrell (D-N.J.) in a Monday
letter.
The State Department has settled 2,805 Syrian refugees during the first
eight months of the fiscal year, according to the letter, which was released
on World Refugee Day.
"Falling short of even this goal is not in keeping with our democratic
values and professed role as a leader among nations and beacon of hope for
those seeking safety from war," they added.
"We must remain steadfast and resolute in who we are as a people and a
nation: a beacon of hope for all those 'yearning to breathe free,'" they
wrote. "In other words, the slow pace of current Syrian refugee admissions
will not help our national security. In fact, it will only give credence to
those who wish to undermine our values."
The letter comes amid Republican efforts to clamp down on the number of
refugees resettled in the U.S., particularly after the terrorist attack in
Orlando carried out by Omar Mateen, who pledged allegiance to the Islamic
State in Iraq and Syria in a 911 call during the attack.
Proponents of refugee resettlement point out that the man was born in New
York and argue that preventing refugees from entering the U.S. would not
have prevented the attack. However, critics, including presumptive GOP
presidential nominee Donald Trump, have focused on the man's parents, who
came from Afghanistan.
