To whom much is given, much is required. Selfishness is not greatness.

Our country has long been a place where those treated unjustly in this world could find refuge. I have found that most refugees assimilate quickly, work hard, avoid remaining wards of the state, and are grateful for the gift of freedom they have been given after the hardships they have faced.

Care for the disenfranchised is at the the very core of the commitments of our faith community. We affirm the reality of a God who loves all people. We affirm the full dignity of every human being. How a people cares for the most vulnerable among them is truest representation of that people's values and character. I strongly support this petition to "welcome the stranger" by increasing the number of refugees allowed into our great country. THIS is how to keep America great.

There are so many refugees living in
Rochester, working but still remaining at the poverty level.
In my seven years as Ex. Director
I have met so many refugees who
immediately get low paying jobs
to ensure that their own children
stay in school. The adults take
courses at night to learn English
and study for the Citizenship
Exam.

Mr. President, please raise the number of refugees allowed into our country to a level consistent with the current need, and the numbers we have traditionally been able to welcome.

We need to do better. These families have lost everything and just want a safe place to rebuild their lives. Rochester has always been a welcoming city and we have the capacity to help more people.
