About all the States can do is not co-operate, i.e. a State cannot be forced to spend State funds in the effort to accept/settle refugees.
The original question proposed here was with reference to increasing immigration specifically for Syrian refugees, . . . good news or not? Given the present situation of an increasing number of Muslims worldwide embracing the idea of destroying Non-Muslim Western Civilization as an appropriate religious grand design DonDiego suggests it is likely not a good idea.
The central question: How does one "vet" a potential immigrant? Based upon what? What information is available on those requesting asylum? What records exist? What confidence can be placed in the records? It's not like they've got a credit-rating score on Equifax, TransUnion and Experian?
There are significant potential dangers in accepting such refugees unlike any in earlier immigration exercises.

Poor wily old DonDiego is advised to watch the beginning of Scarface, starring Al Pacino, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Steven Bauer for a dramatized example of a vetting process.
