Until that is done. democratic institution building cannot happen. The only real solution is longterm democratic process and democratic governance in Haiti. But that does not mean that we have no obligation to comply with international agreements on human rights and on the right of refugees to make their case for political asylum. That is why I have introduced legislation. H.R. 986. to see to it that Haitians who fled Haiti due to a fear of persecution are not deported back to Haiti. Deportees are not monitored by the U.S. Embassy or by human rights monitors. There is no adequate security protection for returnees to ensure that they are not beaten or worse when they return to their villages and towns.
