Can you believe this?!?!?!? I think I heard they’re being *placed* in Tucson. And yes, once there here can freely move about the country. So much for the governors rejecting them. McCain doesn’t have a problem with the “refugees” (invaders) being in our state.

Wow, so what I heard the other day IS true. Of course those Syrian refugees were from 2012, or 13 or 14. They didn't just come over from Syria yesterday. For whatever that's worth, right?

Well, isn't Tucson a Dem-loving area? More 'RAT votes for Tucson I guess.

I know McCain can be a real POS, but I'm actually shocked he doesn't have a problem with the refugees in AZ, especially if they're Muslims.

Our 'RAT Connecticut Govornor - aka Comrade Dannel Malloy - yesterday took in 3 Syrian refugees who were diverted from Indiana (I have to assume they are Muslim, I don't know). The good Gov. Mike Pence (R-IL) *smartly* didn't want 'em in his state. These 3 refugees have been waiting to be placed since 2012.

Malloy was all over the airwaves yesterday, proudly crowing about how PROUD he was to take in the refugees, and how he can't wait to 'welcome' many more to our already deep-in-debt state.

OK, they'll be settled in CT, but what's to keep them here? I assume once they're here, they can travel to any other state they choose.

You're so right... We are ALL screwed!!

And don’t forget that we have a long border here with me-he-co. After they’ve shaved off their beards they can blend in with the illegals as they cross the border.

Tucson is a dem haven. Of course, the Phoenix area has them, too. You should see the letters to the editor in The Republic. And McCain IS a real POS.

There’s not one thing that will stop these invaders from coming from Utah (can you believe it? Utah!?) to AZ...or anywhere else.

Governor Sandoval has decided he doesn’t have the authority to stop refugees from coming to Nevada. Attorney General Laxalt is really strong though and seems fearless. Maybe he will weigh in on the side of the public.

Governor Brian Sandoval has received information from state agencies regarding the status of all refugees in Nevada.

Also, today it was announced that:

• Although refugee resettlement and relocation policies are enacted by the federal government, state agencies have confirmed there are about 2,400 persons from more than two dozen countries currently in the state.

• The Governor requested and received a briefing from the State Refugee Coordinator from Catholic Charities, the agency responsible for managing refugee relocation in partnership with the federal government within the state of Nevada.

• The Governor also participated in a call with the White House and other Governors yesterday to discuss the security procedures in place for refugee resettlement. Governor Sandoval came away feeling that there is an increased need for coordination, consultation and communication between the federal government and the states. While the process for security clearance appears to have been sufficient for many years, circumstances in Syria today are different, and the world situation has clearly changed. For these reasons, the Governor believes it is prudent for the federal government to conduct a review in light of these changed circumstances. Federal officials indicated that regular reviews are a part of their standing operating procedure.

• A preliminary review of state and federal law indicates that the Governor does not have the authority to halt refugee placement. However, recognizing public concern, he asked the President to pause placement of Syrian refugees until a thorough review by the White House of the security background check process can occur.

• The Governor has also requested an opinion from Attorney General Laxalt that details the Governor’s authority regarding refugee relocation and resettlement processes and the implications of any actions the state might take.

• In light of recent events, the Governor is moving up the date of the next Homeland Security Commission meeting to December 2nd. He is also preparing an Executive Order regarding the Nevada Threat Analysis Center and the coordination of security information at the state level.

From the Office of Governor Brian Sandoval

Exactly! There must be a mouse in his pocket, or somewhere else. Stop including me, bathhouse!
