Iowa Sen. Joni Ernst on Afghan Refugees: ‘We Want to Welcome Those Who are Fully Vetted'
[Townhall] This week, Iowa Sen. Joni Ernst said Afghans being evacuated amid the Taliban recapture of Afghanistan will be welcomed in the United States as long as they’ve been "fully vetted."During an interview on ABC’s "This Week" segment, Ernst explained that she and her Republican colleagues want to welcome Afghan evacuees into the United States once they have been vetted and criticized Biden’s "haphazard" handling of our pullout from Afghanistan. "We want to welcome those that are fully vetted," Ernst said. "That is extremely important — that we make sure they are vetted before they touch down on American soil."
