Dohertys right to a hearing because I believe our constitutional rights to due process and equality under the law are fundamental. universal principles not subject to the political agenda of passing administrations. In 1980. Congress passed the Refugee Act to protect the rights of asylum seekers to full and fair hearings on the merits of their claims. Consistent with the Congress Intent in approving the Refugee Act. I am pleased to join the Ad Hoc Congressional Committee for Irish Affairs in submitting to the United States Supreme Court an amici curiae brief which argues Mr. Dohertys right to an asylum hearing.
