SAMPLE LETTER...STUFF THEIR MAILBOX FULL NOW!!!
Dear Gov Little,I am writing to urge you to advise the State Dept that Idaho will NOT accept any more refugees.
While I suspect Chobani and other Big Ag interests will push for a massive increase in refugee numbers, the fact of the matter is that many parts of Idaho are already experiencing a housing shortage as well as burgeoning school enrollments.
We need to take care of our state first.Idaho has a relatively small population and you can bet that most refugees will vote for Democrats, the party of Open Borders and Free Stuff.
We can’t out-pander the Dems, so let’s not try.A major problem for states in taking refugees is that local governments end up paying most of the costs for their healthcare and
education.
Most refugees arrive with no English proficiency or useful skills, many are illiterate in any language. This places a huge burden on our educational system, a burden shouldered by local taxpayers.
Refugees often arrive with serious health problems that local hospital districts are expected to pay for. Local governments are required to provide interpreters in hospital, court and educational systems, regardless of how exotic the language and expensive those services are.These are the kind of costs that “welcoming” states are required to provide. I’m sick and tired of the feds dumping costs on local
taxpayers.
The Refugee Act of 1980 promised that state and local governments would not be forced to pay these costs. They lied, but what else would you expect from a bill written by Ted Kennedy and Joe Biden and signed by Jimmy Carter? That says it all.Finally, once a state says that refugees are welcome they will have no choice as to what kind of refugees they receive. This is a problem because most refugees are chosen by the UNHCR, a corrupt institution run by an organization that hates us. Politicians are always saying these people are seriously vetted, but that’s a lie. Many countries sending us refugees are failed states that have little info on the people they are choosing and we’re supposed to trust the UN.While I am sure you’ll be getting lots of mail from refugee contractors, this is one from an actual voter. Just say NO to more
refugees!Thank you for reading!
