Following is a summary this Washington Examiner article:

Obama Administration immigration officials have snubbed today’s scheduled Senate hearing about the its plan to admit 110,000 more refugees beginning on October 1, 2016.  Instead, Obama went to New York to advocate for increased acceptance of even more refugees, especially from Syria, and Obama even went as far as to say that admitting more refugees makes America safer.  [Note: The refugees being brought in are not adequately vetted.]

The hearing was required by law, so it wasn’t a surprise to the administration.

Following are quotes from Sen. Jeff Sessions, chair of the now postponed hearing:

Despite having sufficient notice of a statutorily required hearing regarding its plans for the Refugee Admissions Program in Fiscal Year 2017, the Obama administration has once again elected to subordinate both its relationship with Congress and the legitimate concerns of the American people to advance the agenda of the United Nations. …

[N]ot one official is available to appear at tomorrow’s scheduled hearing due to this week’s United Nations General Assembly and Summit for Refugees and Migrants. …

Also officials from Homeland and HHS] also refused to attend tomorrow’s hearing in a strange display of bureaucratic solidarity with the Department of State’s indefensible decision. …

The American people deserve explanations about the administration’s reckless plans to admit 110,000 refugees beginning on October 1, 2016.  They demand that their leaders end the lawlessness and abuses in the Refugee Admissions Program, and that their leaders place the safety and security of this country first.
