Michael Moore Launches #MyHomeIsOpen Website To Help Americans House Refugees

11.27.2015 | News | Daily Surge |

Liberal filmmaker Michael Moore launched the “My Home is Open” campaign on his official website Friday to encourage Americans open their own homes to refugees.

Americans can register their own homes as shelters for Syrian refugees on the website.

“I’m asking anyone who can, anyone who has spare rooms in their homes or an empty apartment, cottage, or whatever, to make it available for Syrian and Iraqi refugees for between six months and a year while they’re being settled in the U.S,” reads Moore’s campaign page.

“If you can do this, would you please sign up on the #MyHomeIsOpen registry. Your name and contact info will be kept private and will only be shared with the appropriate refugee agencies sanctioned and overseen by the Obama administration and its participating NGOs. They will contact you when they have refugees that they’ve vetted and need to be placed in homes.”

Moore announced last week that is willing to shelter Syrian refugees at his Michigan residence, while Governors of more than two-dozen states have expressed opposition to resettling Syrian refugees following the terrorist attacks in Paris.

“I look forward to welcoming Syrians to my home and I wholeheartedly encourage other Americans to do the same,” he wrote on his Facebook page.

“I will contact the State Department to let them know I am happy to provide a safe haven to any Syrian refugee couple approved by the Obama administration’s vetting procedures, in which I have full faith and trust,” the filmmaker quipped. “By the way, my 700-sq. ft. apartment in northern Michigan is a little small, but it’s got cable, Wi-Fi and a new dishwasher.”
