"Critics, especially religious organizations, have been condemning anyone who says the refugee system is problematic as being un-Christian or closed-minded. This couldn’t be further from the truth. While importing refugees to the U.S. may seem compassionate, there are much more efficient ways of protecting vulnerable populations around the globe. Resettling refugees to the U.S. is far more costly than moving them to a safe neighboring country. Our federal tax dollars allocated to protecting refugees could do much more if they didn’t focus on resettling them in the U.S."
