Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) warned the Biden administration against allowing Palestinian refugees into the United States, noting that the government is incapable of properly vetting terror threats.
President Joe Biden is “reportedly looking to welcome Gazans to America as refugees. According to a recent poll, 71 percent of Gazans said they supported Hamas’s horrific Oct. 7 attack on Israeli civilians,” Ms. Blackburn said on the Senate floor on May 8, referring to the Hamas terrorist group. “More than 300 individuals on the terror watchlist have entered our country under President Biden. But for some reason, this administration thinks that they can vet Gazans who elected Hamas as their government, who support the terrorist attack.”
