Does Presidential candidate Joe Biden like refugees?

In our previous postRefugee Act of 1980–a rogue’s gallery, Sen. Joe Biden is listed as one of the original co-sponsors of the bill that set up the whole Refugee Resettlement program.     As a matter of fact,  he is one of three original sponsors still in the Senate and now a Presidential candidate. 

So, Joe, how come Delaware doesn’t have many refugees?   According to the latest figures in the 2005 ORR Annual Report to Congress, Delaware has only resettled 747 refugees since 1983.  Compare this to another small state next door, Maryland, where over 30,000 refugees have been resettled in the same time period.   Just makes you wonder.
