Syrian family is personally welcomed by Connecticut governor after Indiana refused to accept the refugees | 18 Nov 2015 | A Syrian family who fled the war-torn country in 2011 was welcomed on Wednesday to their new home of Connecticut after Indiana officials objected to plans for the refugees to resettle in their state. The married couple and their five-year-old son had been living as refugees in Jordan and were waiting three years to resettle in the United States. They were scheduled to arrive in Indianapolis on Thursday but were diverted when Gov. Mike Pence (R) ordered state agencies to halt resettlement activities after the deadly attacks in Paris. Connecticut Gov. Dannel P. Malloy (D) said he personally greeted the family upon their arrival Wednesday in New Haven.
