Texas, Alabama and Michigan. Starting to look like all the Syrians will be going to blue states who are financially strapped.

He needs another line explaining that he will stop any efforts to resettle Syrians in Texas with the police and National Guard if necessary, and he will arrest those officials attempting to facilitate that resettlement.

How will Governors of States actually prevent refugees from settling in their States. My understanding is that once people are here on a US Visa they can travel anywhere.

Texas now joins Michigan and Alabama states that will not except Syrian refugees!

Now if we can only get them and the rest of the States to kick out the illegal aliens that reside in their States respectively!

Good first step!

YeeHaw! Good job Governor Abbott!

We’ve got too many muslims in Houston already. I’m sure Mayor Anus Porker would love to have more though.

Is Gov Abbott prepared to set up checkpoints at every POE and every road that enters the state?

At what point does the so-called opposition stand up on its hind legs and say “if you try to go through with this, we’re impeaching you”?

Oh, yeah. Never.

Good! Now enforce it Gov. Abbott, with force if necessary. Texas has a bunch of cities on the list which were supposed to get these “refugees”.

Thats fine, but how is Texas gonna stop them once they become ensconced in the USA?

They need to be stopped from entering the country.

How do the governors propose to enforce these declarations?

If this is a good and workable position for Syrians why not central americans and other invaders?

The Governor’s positions make it appear as though the states have something to do with immigration to the various states. I don’t see how this is possible though.

Showboating. There isn’t a damned thing he can do to stop anyone from entering Texas.

What he could do is call for the impeachment of the little prick and stand against illegal aliens by his southern border.
