Obama refugee plan exposed: 72 terror cases 'ignored'

WND ^ | Leo Hohmann 

Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., is throwing cold water on President Obama's plans to expand the number of Islamic refugees entering the U.S. from Syria, saying it's a recipe for disaster similar to what’s happening in Europe.
He urged Congress to use its only real power--the power of the purse--to stop a president who has often "run over Congress" to get his way.
In a speech on the Senate floor Thursday night, Sessions said Obama has ignored 72 documented cases of terrorist activity by suspected Muslim immigrants inside the United States since July of last year. Many of these terrorists came to the U.S. as refugees, a stark contrast to the "widows and orphans" meme put forth by the Obama administration and the myriad political and religious groups that support the resettlement business.
Sessions said his office sent the list of terrorist plots, many of them foiled by the FBI before they could be carried out, to the administration more than four months ago and asked for the immigration histories of each suspect.
Sen. Ted Cruz also co-signed the request sent to the Obama administration with an attached list of 72 individuals charged or convicted of terrorism.
