"Obama Administration: U.S. is prepared to take in Syrian Refugees"

In the article titled “Obama Administration: U.S. is prepared to take in Syrian refugees” found in the Los Angeles times by Marcus E. Howard(2015), the debate on quantity of Syrian Refugees allowed asylum in the United States continues to raise opinions on how America should aid the refugees. President Obama has assured that at least 10,000 Syrian refugees will be allowed to enter the United States, but among concerns of Security over terrorism, Obama assures Security is of upmost importance. Conservatives in the U.S. continue to fear a larger number of refugees will lead to an over use of public benefits and an overextended security process, Republican committees believe the situation would be better handled if solved at the source of the crisis in Syria. Human Rights organizations have asked the Refugee Affairs committee to work closely with European states to protect the evading refugees. The Refugee has brought up arguments and opinions on what role the United States should play in the Middle Eastern problem that has escalated into a Global Refugee Crisis.
