(WHBL) – Republican leaders in Wisconsin want to know what will happen to the thousands of Afghan refugees who are coming to Wisconsin.
Congressman Tom Tiffany on Wednesday said neither the Biden Administration in Washington, D.C. nor the Evers Administration in Madison have provided answers about who the refugees are, where they will go once they get to Wisconsin, or what they will do once they are here.
Western Wisconsin candidate for Congress, and former Navy SEAL Derrick Van Orden said some Afghans need protection in the U.S., but he wants to make sure that everyone who comes here has been vetted and isn’t a Taliban sympathizer.
The latest estimate is that as many as two-thousand Afghan refugees will arrive at Fort McCoy. Governor Evers said the numbers fluctuate, but he expects anywhere from a few hundred to two-thousand people to arrive at the base.
