Bill Nelson's statement on plan to admit Syrian refugees | 2015-11-17 | 2015 | 2015-11 | Democrat | House | FL | Bill Nelson | N000032 | www.billnelson.senate.gov | legacy | FOLLOWING IS SEN. BILL NELSONS STATEMENT ON PLAN TO ADMIT SYRIAN REFUGEES The attacks in Paris further illustrate the threat ISIS poses to our national security. And while I believe its important that we as a country remain compassionate to those in need, I also believe that the security of our nation must always come first. The screening process takes up to two years, so I have asked the administration for additional details on its plan and I want to know how they will screen these refugees to ensure that there are absolutely no potential national security or terrorism concerns. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
