UPDATE!
REFUGEE RESETTLEMENTS IN OUR COMMUNITIES
If you live within 100 miles of Eau Claire, Wisconsin, this affects you. St. Croix County is within 100 miles of Eau Claire. Please plan on attending the March 5, 2024, St. Croix County Board of Supervisors meeting to offer citizen comments to support a resolution to pause refugee resettlements in our area. At the February 20, 2024, St. Croix County Administration Committee meeting, dozens of people showed up to voice their concerns about the unvetted refugees that may be placed in our community.
Please watch from the beginning of the meeting where Chair Carah Koch explains the procedure for the proposed Resolution to Pause Refugee Resettlement that will be discussed at the Board level March 5, 2024. Note: The Bureau of Refugees that has been invited to speak are NOT elected officials and work closely with unelected NGOs (non-government organizations). Follow the money trail. Listen to the citizens who are very educated as to how refugee resettlements affect the sheriff's office, county budgets and so many other taxpayer-funded programs.

Scroll down for more history. The Resolution below was postponed indefinitely with Chair Bob Long instructing County Administrator Ken Witt to put something together for the Board for the March 5 meeting. We don't know what documentation will be presented to the Board, as the agenda has not yet been posted. If the Bureau of Refugees is invited to speak, then people like
Frank Gaffney, Ron Brantsner and Dr. John Palmer should be invited to speak.
