I approve of this bill since it aims to accomplish the goals of helping people living in the horrendous situation in Syria in a way that insists responsibility and accountability on our government's part. This bill also aims to not cause harm to our existing citizens' security and economy. I believe that Atlasia's diverse people are better suited to taking in these refugees than most other countries. This bill takes a excellent and intelligent approach to solving this issue. I'm willing to vote on this bill as it is.
I'd like to get some input on this before writing an amendment, but I think there should be some kind of provision for English classes. Making sure refugees have an opportunity to learn the language would do a lot to promote social cohesion and lessen potential tension.
I didn't find it very specific. It's not a sticking point that makes me oppose the bill, but I find that there may not be resources in host communities, especially smaller towns. I'd like to see something that refers to a curriculum or sets proficiency as a goal. I'm afraid there's not enough accountability.
