Obama Announces Plan To Punish States That Dont Accept Syrian Refugees Four states have announced that they are refusing to accept Syrian Refugees. After hearing of this, Obama put his foot down. He reminded the states that they dont have any power over the federal government, an issued an order to speed up the Syrian Refugee process. Obama declared that any state that disobeys his orders will be cut from all federal funding. They will also be subject to enforcement action. Just when you thought Obama had done it all, he goes and does this. He needs to be kicked out of office. Should we continue to fight against the admission of Syrian Refugees?
