Sandoval asks Obama to review refugee eligibility
By Marcella Corona, Reno Gazette-Journal
Gov. Brian Sandoval joined with other political leaders on Monday who say admitting Syrian refugees into the United States could pose a risk to citizens.
Sandoval said he was concerned first and foremost with Nevada’s security following a recent attack on Paris that killed at least 132 people and injured hundreds more on Friday.
“…It is in the interest of all Nevadans and the millions who travel to our state annually to insist on extensive evaluations of any potential risk individuals may pose to Nevada or our national security,” Sandoval said in a statement on Monday.
