The story quotes HIAS President and CEO Mark Hetfield, who told Gerr, "if people are committed to protect refugees just because they look like they do or worship like they do, that won’t really lead to anybody being protected. So we have to stand up for everybody.”
Hetield también señaló que la respuesta a la crisis en Siria ha sido desproporcionadamente baja dado "que 240.000 refugiados fueron admitidos en Estados Unidos procedentes de Vietnam en 1980; por el contrario, sólo 10.000 sirios están programados para ser admitidos este año."
