U.S. Poised to Hit Obama’s Target of 10,000 Syrian Refugees


(Worthy News) – After a slow start, it appears increasingly likely that the Obama administration will hit its goal of admitting 10,000 Syrian refugees into the United States before the end of September.

State Department totals show that 2,340 Syrian refugees arrived last month in the United States.

That’s more than what occurred during the entire seven months after President Barack Obama directed his team to prepare for 10,000 admissions from the war-torn country. Total admissions for the current budget year now come to about 7,900, and the vast majority of them are Sunni Muslims, records show. [ Source ]
