Sean Parnell on Immigration

 

 


30,000 refugees from Afghanistan is irresponsible

Accepting Afghan refugees is the latest issue dividing Pennsylvania Republicans. How the debate unfolds will help show whether the GOP continues to follow the direction of former President Trump or take another course. Some Republicans are urging President Biden to put on the brakes, arguing that the refugees can't be sufficiently vetted. Other Republicans are emphasizing the need to welcome those who risked their lives to help American troops.

"We cannot bring 30,000 unvetted Afghan refugees to the United States of America. It's an irresponsible policy and quite frankly I can't believe we even have to have this conversation," Sean Parnell told Tucker Carlson.

Craig Snyder said Parnell was "ignoring the history of how Jewish refugees from the Holocaust, Cuban refugees from Castro, Vietnamese refugees from communism," and others have "proven to be among the most loyal and contributing Americans." Snyder called Parnell's remarks "an assault on American goodness."
