The United States will give $419 million more in humanitarian aid to assist Syrian refugees and the countries that are hosting them, administration officials said Monday.
The new aid brings the total U.S. donation since the Syrian conflict began in 2011 to $4.5 billion, more than any other country. It was announced a day after Secretary of State John F. Kerry said the United States would raise its annual refugee resettlement cap from 70,000 this fiscal year to 85,000 next year and 100,000 in 2017.
The United States has been the single largest donor of humanitarian aid to Syrians who have been displaced within their war-torn country or who have become refugees.

Obama spends our money like a drunken sailor on shore leave.
Obama has got to continue the invasion of Europe by Muslims with our money. The New World Order may be here quicker than we thought.
As a former drunken sailor, I only spent my own money. ;-)
At least sailors spend their own money and stop when they run out.
It’s better pay than they would get to fight their kindred muzzy scum that is attacking them. They may be be evil and dupes, but they know how to milk the cow.
There is the price tag for “LINE IN THE SAND!!”
Meanwhile our vets go without medical care
This man is a curse on the nation
This is insane. Why should we taxpayer fund anti-Christian invasion - these people hate us and want to kill us.
HOw about these men fight for their country like we in the west have done. Instead they seek to get their freebies and look for Western dopey women.
As a former drunken sailor on shore leave, I take offense at that. I only took enough money on shore leave to get a meal and a good drunk and left the rest on the ship.
He should “give away” the Saudis’ money to his Muslim friends, not ours Where’s congress? Where’s the appropriation ?
The numbers would go way up if we added the cost of the weapons we smuggled to the terrorists.
NASA once got 20 billion a year (under Bush),
until the First Moslem pRes_ _ent destroyed NASA
making it subservient to Islamic esteem *or whatever.
Congress has no control over this country,
since being run by the complicit proIslamic
antiAmerican, lying, and EXEMPT, GOP scum.
Tragic. But also pretty darned amazing how the congress and courts let themselves be so completely neutered
But let’s cut veterans affairs.....yep lets give to Syria while screwing veterans. Lord I have hated the last 7 years so much.
Sooooo...what appropriation did this money come from?
The whole concept of checks and balances has been destroyed. It appears that Obama can do anything he wants and the last 15 months of his second term will, therefore, be a full onslaught on the foundations of the US to either bring down the country totally or so weaken it that it will be conquered by alien invaders including thousands of Muslim terrorists with the rest wanting to impose Shariah law.
> Obama spends our money like a drunken sailor on shore leave.
And because of that man and his piss poor economic policies I’m almost destitute. May the favor be returned after he leaves office.
