The SAFE Act of 2015 is the first step towards addressing our refugee resettlement program by putting a pause on the admission of Syrian refugees to allow our government agencies to ensure that our vetting procedures are not permitting terrorists to slip through our borders.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T20:30:58Z |
