Review Syrian refugee resettlement --but don't halt it
Gov. Brian Sandoval says he wants the White House to review the process of refugee resettlement in light of the attacks.
The Republican didn't go as far as other governors, who threatened to halt efforts to allow Syrian refugees into their states.

Greatest duty as judge: oath of citizenship to new Americans
In 2005, a simple son of promiswe was appointed by President Bush and confirmed by the United States Congress as a federal judge. I saw in my courtroom the fulfillment of all that our forefathers sought to create. A nation of laws.
A nation of due process, and merit, and justice for all.
And, yes, a nation of immigrants. One of the greatest duties I performed was to administer the oath of citizenship to new Americans--immigrants who embody our dream of opportunity and prosperity.

I oppose amnesty; enforce our laws
Amnesty: I oppose amnesty. As a Federal Judge, I saw both sides of the immigration issue. It was my duty to sentence undocumented immigrants for their crimes, but it was also my honor to swear in new Americans.I believe that we
must enforce our laws, secure our borders and respect the efforts of those who have become a citizen through the proper legal process. The American Dream is alive and well, but it must be pursued legally.

Protect DREAMers instead of deporting them.
Sandoval signed Letter from 11 Governors to Congressional leadership
Nearly 800,000 young people eligible for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program (DACA)--known as "Dreamers"--played no role in the decision to come here and they have known no other home but the United States.
Already, more than 12,000 Dreamers have lost their protective status and are susceptible to deportation. This is not a theoretical peril, but in fact an immediate and urgent one, because more than 100 young people in our cities and towns are losing their protective status every day. Those numbers will accelerate dramatically without a legislative fix.
We stand with these young American immigrants not only because it is good for our communities and a strong American 21st century economy, but also because it is the right thing for our nation to do. DACA recipients have subjected themselves to extensive background and security checks in order to work and attend college.
They are studying at our universities. They are working to support themselves and their families, paying taxes and contributing to their communities in a myriad of ways. In the absence of congressional action providing for a permanent resolution, the termination of DACA puts these young people and their families in peril, and will destabilize our schools, workplaces and communities.
We recognize the complexities and challenges created by this issue, but swift, successful action is needed, action that can build momentum to reassure policymakers that progress on other immigration challenges is possible as well. As a bipartisan coalition of governors, we stand ready to help.
