Madam Speaker. I rise today to express my strong opposition to the Bush administrations decision to immediately return seagoing Haitian refugees to their country. No interview. no screening. no hearing to determine if they deserve political asylum. This policy is hardhearted. immoral. and even racist. At the heart of this wrongheaded action is the failed United States policy toward Haiti. Just a short time ago this administration organized an international effort to restore the royal family to the throne in Kuwait. Not too long ago. this administration invaded a country in this hemisphere to bring down a military dictator and alleged drug dealer.
