Comments for Sandpoint Reader
In contrast to the anti-refugee sentiment coming from county government, Sandpoint officials are planning to introduce a measure supporting Syrian refugee resettlement in Idaho. Whatever form it takes, it will serve as a counterpoint to the resolutions from North Idaho county commissioners voicing opposition to refugee resettlement. The planned measure follows comments from some residents worried about the effect of county commissioners’ resolutions on Sandpoint’s reputation.
