This is outrageous and will result in Americans being denied jobs and having no recourse. The agreement will undermine American family values by curtailing the ability of American citizens to sponsor the entry of family members into the community. The bill exempts the Immigration and Naturalization Service from our environmental laws. even though none of these laws have ever hindered the enforcement of immigration laws. The bill will send genuine refugees back to their oppressors without having their claims properly considered. If a person arrives at the border without proper documents. the officer at the border can send that person back without a hearing. Guess who cannot get proper papers? Refugees. A refugee cannot go to the Gestapo and KGB and say: I am trying to escape your oppression. please give me the proper papers so I can go to America. The bill eliminates judicial review for most INS actions. Just think. a Federal bureaucracy with no judicial accountability. When did the Republicans become such spirited advocates of unrestrained big government? No government agency should be allowed to act. much less lock people up or send them back to dictatorships. without being subject to court review. E 1415 Should we ensure that our immigration laws are respected and enforced? Of course. Do we need to undercut public health efforts. destroy our environment. debase our fundamental values. violate the rights of American citizens and waste taxpayer dollars on foolish or dangerous enterprises in order to enforce our immigration? Of course not. This bill is not a credit to this country.
