In response to the Paris terrorist attacks, President Obama essentially said terrorists are welcome here.
ABC News reports Obama Vows to Veto Bill Increasing Screening for Refugees.
President Barack Obama is vowing to veto a bill from House Republicans that would increase screening for Syrian and Iraqi refugees before they enter the United States.
The White House says the legislation would introduce “unnecessary and impractical requirements” that would harm efforts to assist some of the world’s most vulnerable people.
The bill would add a new requirement for FBI background checks. It does not call for ending the refugee program or require religious screenings, as some Republicans have demanded.
France Demands Tighter Controls, EU Balks
In Europe, France Demands Tighter Controls, EU Balks.
France is demanding that Brussels and the European Parliament “get a grip” on the security threats facing the bloc by allowing tighter border checks and removing barriers to sharing airline passenger data.
Bernard Cazeneuve, French interior minister, hit out at the EU’s lack of action, saying the bloc must “shape up” and regroup in the face of an organised terror threat following Friday’s terrorist attacks in Paris.
In the wake of the Paris attacks, the issue has become politicised in Brussels, with Monika Hohlmeier, a German Christian Democrat and leader of the parliament’s home affairs committee, accusing left-leaning parties of “inviting terrorists to use loopholes in our safety and security legislation in order to perpetrate other terror attacks”.
“For them there is no lesson to be drawn from the Paris attacks,” Ms Hohlmeier said of the parliament’s mainstream centre-left and liberal groups. “The movements of terrorists have to be monitored.”
The commission has been avoided discussing amendments to the code governing the Schengen zone. Dimitris Avramopoulos, EU home affairs commissioner, said on Wednesday that Schengen was “not the problem” if its tools for security were put to full use.
