Yesterday, from a member (r) of Congress:
Matt Rosendale @RepRosendale
Today I learned that 75 refugees from Afghanistan will be arriving in Montana. I strongly oppose the resettlement of these Afghan nationals in Montana.

Montana definitely has the empty space.

This is so incredibly unAmerican.

Anything to agitate the right wingnut republican base.
Wow – 147,000 acres (one of the largest in our nation) and less populated than many other states. I think the USA can accommodate 75 refugees there without any problem
