No! Let's take care of our vets instead. They actually invested in this country and aren't trying to destroy our way of life, but preserve it. While not all those Syrian refugees pose a threat, some of them do. So, let's not make it any easier for the ones who may be terroristd to set up shop.

We have too many homeless Minnesotans living on the streets to allow untraceable, undocumented, refugees in with benefits. This plan seriously threatens the Safety and Security of our state.

We as a state connot control the crim rate not in out big and small cities. Pine county has the highest drug in MN. I don't even feel comfortable going in the cites now . it's not that I am racits but I don't agree with having to change my life style to fit others. America was started for the free and the brave not the weak and unloyal. This is not going to end good !

Every time a country has civil unrest we should not allow a large influx of refugees to burden us financially. They have nothing, usually don't speak english, and almost always have immediate medical needs, and need free hoysing. A bad recipe for a state and country that have a miriad of their own issues, many of which are not being met adequately.

Our country and my children come first! Our own people need help! What is wrong with the president is he blind to the fact our seniors need medication they still can't afford or the fact that our own vets are homeless and the so called refugees he's wanting to haul in May or may not be dangerous??!! He needs to be impeached where's the petition for that!!??????????

I am against bringing in Syrian refugees into MN, and providing jobs for them, when our state already has people unemployed. Some stats: 4.3% unemployment rate in the twin cities area, 7.1% unemployment rate in Grand Rapids, MN and 3.7% state-wide average unemployment rate. These rates are going up, as there have been massive layoffs in Northern Mn in the past few months. If we can "create" jobs for these refugees, why cant we create jobs for our own people? I already pay enough taxes to provide welfare for people in this state/country, I don't need to pay more for people who aren't even citizens of this state or this country. We need to take care of our own state and our own country before we take care of others.

I do not feel it is in the best interest of Minnesota to take in refugees, when we have actual Minnesotains in need.

I feel that being one of the places on the top ten target of terrorism is enough to say i wouldnt bet my kids life on them all being good people, not that most wont be but its not worth betting my family on
