Judicial Watch, a conservative watchdog group, has filed a FOIA lawsuit with the State Department on June 18 for records on where the Obama administration resettled refugees in 2015 and 2016, leading up to the presidential election.
“Judicial Watch is suing to find out which towns across America were, without input and over the objections of residents, targeted for refugee settlements by the Obama administration,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton, in a press release. “And we are investigating to make sure now that the current State Department is being more transparent in its placement of refugees.”
