WASHINGTON - In light of the Paris attacks, U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) today called for a ‘timeout’ on bringing refugees from Syria into the United States.

“The one thing I’ve learned from Paris is that we need to have a timeout on bringing refugees into this country until we have a system that we think will work. So I’m calling for a timeout on Syrian refugees.”

-Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina)
