POLL: 53% Say No Syrian Refugees

CNN recaps the Bloomberg poll released last night:

The refugee issue has emerged as a key political issue in the wake of last week’s terrorist attacks in Paris. More than half — 31 — of the nation’s governors, mainly Republicans, oppose letting Syrian refugees into their states and most GOP presidential candidates have called for a pause in allowing them into the country. A Bloomberg Politics poll released Wednesday found that 53% of American adults don’t want Syrian refugees resettled in the U.S., while 28% say the Obama administration should proceed with its plan to accept 10,000 refugees next year without religious screening, and 11% say only Christians from Syria should be allowed in.

The president has vowed to veto a GOP bill that would suspend all Syrian and Iraqi immigration.historyopinion
