OF THE CONSERVATIVES OF THE UPSTATE
RESOLUTION
ASSERTING NON-APPROVAL OF PARTICIPATION IN THE REFUGEE RESETTLEMENT PROJECT
The
Protection of Health, Safety, and Welfare of the Citizens of Pickens County
WHEREAS the issue of resettlement of refugees
from the Middle East is a matter of the most urgent concern, as it involves
vital issues of national security, terrorism, public health, public safety,
religious freedom, and immigration, and WHEREAS these issues are of such great
public importance that refugee resettlements should occur only after the issues
involved are fully and publicly discussed, and after the will of the people of
South Carolina is clearly established through legislative action.
WHEREFORE IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED:
(1) That we call upon all public officials,
governmental, and non-governmental agencies to immediately cease and desist
from all placement of refugees anywhere within the state of South Carolina, and
to take all action necessary to ensure that neither state, federal, nor
non-governmental agencies proceed with refugee resettlement until the people of
South Carolina have spoken through their established legislative processes to
establish a state public policy on any and all refugee resettlement, and
(2) That that we hereby ask for a public and immediate order
from the Governor of South Carolina directing the South Carolina DSS to cease
and desist from all refugee resettlement activities until the Legislature
convenes and passages legislation approving a state public policy on any and
all refugee resettlement, and
(3) That we ask that each of our state representatives and
senators from Pickens County
immediately issue a letter to the Governor and the Director of the DSS stating
this same request, and
(4) That the President of Conservatives of
the Upstate shall within twenty-four hours submit this resolution by email to
the Governor, the Director of the DSS, and to each senator and legislator of
Pickens County, to the Lutheran Family Services In the Carolinas and the President shall further publish on the internet
web page and/or Face book group of this organization a copy of this resolution,
a copy of the letter of transmittal addressed to each recipient, and an ongoing
status report, to be updated no less than weekly, showing which recipients have
responded and how they have so responded.
