All of those agencies have a veto. If there is a problem. they veto the admission. The process takes 2 years or more. and a very small number of people actually are admitted. Of the 2.000 or so Syrian refugees who have been admitted to the United States. the overwhelming majority are children and widows who have been victims of torture. who have seen their husbands beheaded. The bill before us. as has been described by the Speaker and the author. would stop the refugee program. They call it a pause. They would stop it because it completely restructures the very elaborate system that we have.
