Concern clashes with compassion at City Club Missoula refugee resettlement forum
MATR Sponsor (view all)
An outspoken critic of opening a refugee resettlement office in Missoula called upon the federal government to shut down sanctuary cities and deport illegal immigrants living on welfare during a public forum Monday.
Jim Buterbaugh, a Whitehall resident, said he was opposed to ongoing efforts to reestablish the local resettlement office, which helped dozens of refugees make a new start in Missoula over a 29-year period before closing in 2008.
"It’s not a matter of fear, it’s a matter of our nation’s security," Buterbaugh said. "You can go online and read all kinds of different things about this. You can even go onto someone’s Facebook page in Minneapolis and see what they have to say."
