Arkansas Governor Hutchinson Opposes Syrian Refuge Center in Arkansas
ARRA News Service: Today, Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson joined the growing list of other state governors opposing resettlement of Syrian refugees in their states.
Governor Hutchinson issued the following statement:
“As governor, I oppose any facility or installation in Arkansas being used as a Syrian refugee center. Many of the Syrian refugees are fleeing violence in their own country but Europe, Asia or Africa are logically the best places for resettlement or for temporary asylum. Syria is a war torn country and the United States will support our European friends in fighting ISIL in Syria and elsewhere; however, this is not the right strategy for the United States to become a permanent place of relocation. Again, I will oppose Arkansas being used as such a relocation center.
“The hardships facing these refugees and their families are beyond most of our understanding, and my thoughts and prayers are with them, but I will not support a policy that is not the best solution and that poses risk to Arkansans"
