President Obama has once again demonstrated his blatant disregard for the Constitution.
Outraged that dozens of states are taking measures to keep undocumented Syrian refugees from being settled within their borders, Obama’s White House issued a statement warning them against turning away refugees lest they face the consequences of provoking his wrath.
The statement, taking the form of a two-page letter drawn up by the Office of Refugee Resettlement, argued that, “States may not deny [Office of Refugee Resettlement)-funded benefits and services to refugees based on a refugee’s country of origin or religious affiliation,” effectively barring state governments from taking steps to identify potential terrorists.
As if that weren’t enough, the Office’s statement further explained that if states did go through with such steps, it would take action against them, willing to go as far as suspending and terminating personnel involved in blocking refugees from being resettled.

Look what else he ignored via our constitution. He believes he can get away with it since he ha so far.
There is a balance of power to keep a tyrant from single handily destroy America. I am with the states that stand up against Obama craziness.
No but the Attorney General Can overturn him..
Bombard the Attorney General with your concerns….
A leader would address the concerns the States have and building a consensus. Instead he is showing that he is an egotistical man with no leadership. This has been his pattern from day one.
Deb Hancock Tullos Just which article of that law are you talking about??
There are all kinds of prohibitions concerning consulting with the States. One of the problems with Obama’s approach is that he is not consulting with the States and the States have a right to know the ‘who, what, when and where’ of any placement that incurs an economic or safety restriction on the State.
