In response, Rep. Bishop issued the following statement: At a recent House Judiciary hearing, FBI Director James Comey told me personally that the current vetting process for admitting Syrian refugees into the United States is not risk free. Given this information and the recent attacks in Paris, Beirut and across the world, we have a duty to pause and develop more thorough protocols, like those outlined in the SAFE Act. This is about making sure American families are safe here at home. By issuing a veto threat on this legislation, President Obama is blatantly ignoring the solutions outlined by Congress and the calls of concerned citizens across our nation. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
