War and famine have displaced more than 11 million Syrians.

Germany—whose population is one-fourth ours—is accepting 800,000 refugees this year, yet the United States has only committed to accepting up to 8,000 Syrian refugees next year.
We must do more. Join together if you agree, and tell the U.S. Government to commit to accept more Syrian refugees.
