(CNSNews.com) – A State Department official told the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee on Thursday that the U.S. does not prioritize Christian Syrian refugees just because of their religion.
“We’re not going to change the program, somehow bring more of one particular religion than another,” Anne Richard, assistant secretary of State for Population, Refugees and Migration, told the committee.
This really upsets me. While we may all be God’s children, Christians are dealing with something in the Middle East that others are not. Genocide. There are places of refuge for Muslims in the Middle East. That isn’t true for Christians. When people go to vote next year, they really need to remember what party is fighting to protect our Christian brothers and sisters in the Middle East, and what party is not.
