On Immigration: Deal with budget instead of focusing on Syrian refugees

The oil-dependent state is grappling with an estimated budget deficit of $3.5 billion amid low oil prices, and Gov.

She said Walker has not given any consideration to trying to stop Syrian refugees from settling in the state. Source: ABC News on Syrian Refugee Crisis Nov 16, 2015
