Immigration experts: Michigan, other states lack legal authority to block Syrian refugees - Crain's Detroit Business:
"Governors across the U.S. — including Gov. Rick Snyder in Michigan — have threatened to stop accepting Syrian refugees following last week's attacks in Paris, even as experts counter they lack legal authority to block the relocations.
Meanwhile, President Barack Obama, whose administration recently pledged to accept about 10,000 Syrian refugees, argued Monday that the United States needs to allow them because many are fleeing terrorism.
...The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), a Muslim civil rights group, called the governors' comments and recommendations "un-American," adding that rejecting refugees projects "our fears to the world.""
