Carson asks Congress to block Syrian refugees coming to U.S.

HENDERSON – Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson is calling on Congress to terminate all public funding used to resettle Syrian refugees and migrants in the U.S., citing the terrorist attacks in France.

Carson said Monday he wants that funded ended immediately, stopping all Syrian refugees from entering the U.S.

"There is currently no ability to vet these people," Carson said told reporters in Henderson, adding that bringing them to the U.S. puts the American people at risk.

In a letter Carson sent Monday to House Speaker Paul Ryan, Carson expressed concerns that President Barack Obama has said the U.S. would accept 45,000 more Syrian refugees in 2016-2017.
