Official: US goal to take in 110,000 refugees in coming yea
Quote:WASHINGTON – The United States will strive to take in 110,000 refugees from around the world in the coming year, a senior Obama administration official said Wednesday, in what would be a nearly 30 percent increase from the 85,000 allowed in over the previous year.

The increase reflects continuing concern about the refugee crisis stemming from Syria's civil war and conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. Yet it's still far short of what advocacy groups say is needed to address an unprecedented crisis that saw some 1 million people pour into Europe alone last year.

The official who wasn't authorized to discuss the numbers before an official announcement and spoke on condition of anonymity.

Secretary of State John Kerry had previously suggested that the U.S. target would climb to 100,000 in the coming year, but that the figure was a floor, not a ceiling. He briefed lawmakers on the revised figure on Tuesday.

The 110,000 goal covers a 12-month period that starts next month. In the 12 months ending Sept. 30, the U.S. goal was 85,000, and in the three years before that, the target was 70,000 per year.

a goal? what kind of goal is that? That's like someone setting a goal to get at least 3 raging cases of super herpes next year.

Hopefully there is a link to a State Department website where liberals can sign up to accept these loving families into their homes no questions asked.

What better way to show the greatness of this country and our culture than to take these people in and show them out generosity and kindness.

That's like allowing your son to spend the night with Michael Jackson to prove to him your generosity and kindness.

How generous and kind of you to offer everyone else's shelter to these refugees. Can you show me where you signed up to offer your assistance?

Mary and Joseph weren't refugees.


Nice try though. I am not surprised that the makers of the meme didn't know that.

I did not offer up anyone else's shelter to these refugees. I simply said that if we wanted to make them see what compassionate people we are, wouldn't this be the best way?
