Yet. as the threat of ISIS evolves and intensifies. the world is looking toward the United States as an example of strength. So I propose in the wake of this deadly attack that our administration and the Federal Government do three things. First. the President needs to hit the pause button on Syrian refugee resettlement until the Department of Homeland Security can verify with certainty that our processes are enhanced to ensure that applicants do not have ties to ISIS or any other terror groups. Secondly. the President needs to lay out a clear strategy for destroying perhaps the best resourced. best armed terrorist group on the planet. This is long overdue. and his failure to do so is one of the reasons we find ourselves where we are today. It is in the best interest of the Syrian people to stay in Syria if they can. but with circumstances being what they are. we can understand from a human perspective why they would seek a safe haven wherever they can find it. This refugee crisis is directly related to the Presidents failure to have any effective strategy to deal with the situation on the ground in Syria. It is destabilizing governments in the region. which have huge refugee populations and which have to deal with the economic and other challenges of dealing with that situation. It is important to see the refugee crisisincluding the 10.000 Syrian refugees who appeared in New Orleans just this last weekis a result of a failure of any strategy to deal with this conflict in Syria. There are suggestions that have been made that I think bear some consideration. such as having safe zones and nofly and nodrive zones enforced by the international community. Before I spoke.
