@StefWKight @SenatorMenendez @welcomeus @cecmunoz @NazaninSAsh .@SenatorMenendez: "I truly believe that reconciliation is the only pathway...toward some type of status for undocumented immigrants in the country...without reconciliation and without Republican support in a evenly divided Senate, I don't see how that pathway would be possible." 
@StefWKight @SenatorMenendez @welcomeus @cecmunoz @NazaninSAsh .@SenatorMenendez: "I have taken a very clear position that a refugee is a refugee and you need to give them the opportunity to make their case under our asylum laws. It should not differentiate between an Afghan or a Haitian."
@StefWKight @SenatorMenendez @welcomeus @cecmunoz @NazaninSAsh .@NazaninSAsh:"I think the two biggest challenges are housing and staffing, everything from making sure that refugees get a warm welcome at the airport, making sure that their apartments are set up...making sure that there is someone to help them navigate a very new environment."
