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.

David Neri YES!!!
Oh yes states can and will
Yes they can! States rights are sovereign, feds cannot just come in and dictate laws! Congress enacts laws, not the President! Do they not teach civics anymore?? This is a Republic meant to be governed BY the people, NOT elected officials!!
I, a citizen of The United States of America, am calling for the arrest and trial of Barack Hussein Obama for treason, under Article 3 of the United States Constitution for aiding and giving comfort to our enemies. If you agree, please copy and repost
Somehow I think he must have slept through those classes
UNDER THE 10TH AMENDMENT OF THE UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION, the individual states do have the power to refuse refugees. “…
Nowhere in the federal Constitution is Congress given authority to regulate local matters concerning the health, safety, and morality of state residents. Known as police powers, such authority is reserved to the states under the Tenth Amendment.
Conversely, no state may enter into a treaty with a foreign government because such agreements are prohibited by the plain language of Article I to the Constitution.”
Um, yes they can!
Obama screams about global warming with no proof as a matter of fact they’re counting molecules parts per million in the ocean that’s not proof of global warming and every summer gets warm and every winter it gets cold can as far as what I said watch the news there’s plenty of proof on every bit of it and it’s documented
Science measures global warming one molecule change per 10, 000 molecules in the ocean. Doesn’t it make more sense to blame all the nuclear waste that’s been dumped into the ocean and the oil spills and pollution in the ocean rather than to blame it on vehicle emissions?
Yep, they can!
Oh yes they can
