Ted Cruz Introduces ‘State Refugee Security Act’ Authorizing Governors to Reject Syrian and Other Refugees

From Breitbart's Big Government:

GOP presidential contender Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX)is pushing his State Refugee Security Act of 2015 (S. 2363), now before the United States Senate for formal consideration.

Joined by his former boss, Texas Governor Greg Abbott, a fellow Republican, Cruz said the two page bill would give Governors the right to reject the settlement of refugees from any nation in their state, at their sole discretion.

Cruz’s new proposal is the third in a series of anti-terrorist bills proposed recently by the junior Senator from Texas.

In November he introduced the Terrorist Refugee Infiltration Prevention Act, which would “immediately bar refugees to the United States from any country, such as Iraq or Syria, that contains territory substantially controlled by a foreign terrorist organization.”

“The bill sunsets after three years so that Congress can reevaluate the global situation and either let the bill expire or reauthorize it with necessary modifications in light of changed circumstances,” according to a statement released by Cruz’s Senate office.

In January he introduced the Expatriot Terrorist Act of 2015, which would “remove U.S. citizenship from Americans who travel overseas to join ISIS and wage jihad.”

Go! Ted, Go!
