I do not think we are going to be able to find their presence or find any problem. I think the Senators resolution is excellent. because I think it sets the spirit and the tone in which we should approach this matter. I say that while there were some problems in my State originally. and we were one of the States selected for these refugees. I could not have been prouder of my State when I saw the Niceville High School band and the dignitaries and everyone else who was on hand to greet the refugees when they came to Eglin Air Force Base. They have been met warmly and with open hands. and Florida will continue to show that kind of spirit for them. Our Governor was one of the first to recognize our responsibility in the leadership role we should play here. and he has gone out of his way to make them welcome.
