Last week's terror attacks in Paris are creating a major setback for Syrian refugees fleeing the violence, as many governors in the United States are closing their borders to them. This comes as it was discovered that one of the terrorists involved in the attack may have been posing as a refugee.

On Monday, Gov. Chris Christie joined with a handful of other Republican governors in saying that he would not allow any more Syrian refugees to settle in New Jersey.

While being interviewed on the Hugh Hewitt radio show, the governor was asked if he would make exception for children.

"The fact is we need appropriate vetting. I don't think orphans under 5 should be admitted into the United States," Gov. Christie said. "They don't have family here. How will we care for these folks?"

There are currently 88 Syrian refugees that have resettled in New Jersey since 2012.

The decision to close the states' borders to refugees has been condemned by President Barack Obama, as well as advocates in New Jersey who help refugees.

Rev. Seth Kaper-Dale has assisted refugees within his congregation to resettle in New Jersey in the past. He says security clearances take years for refugees to hurdle.

"The amount of security clearances is so high," he says. "I am not a bit concerned about the people coming into this country through the office of refugee resettlement."

The State Department in Washington, D.C. released a statement saying they believe all refugees have been safely vetted before being allowed on United States soil.
