I think the refugee policy is a very important plus for Minnesota. As a foreigner, I get nervous in places where there isn't enough diversity in the police force or other governmental services, for example. But in Minnesota, it is very common to see Hmong, Somali, and Nepali police officers, etc. It is a reality that immigrants who come to the US for employment are usually better off, and their children are less likely to become police officers, etc. whereas refugees and their children are more likely to take up such jobs. (Caveat: this is an observation of facts a posteriori, not a comment on the innate abilities of refugees vis a vis skilled immigrants, etc.)
