Lawmakers at the Republican-led US House of Representatives have overwhelmingly approved a bill to ban Syrian and Iraqi refugees from entering the United States until tougher screening measures are in place. The lawmakers defended the measure as a necessary step to boost security after last week’s deadly terror strikes in Paris. US President Barack Obama has pledged to veto the measure if it gets on his desk.
