Most of these people did not speak English. some were uneducated and most were unsophisticated in their understanding of U.S. law and documents. Yet all faced danger in the countries from which they fled. I shudder to think of how many of my constituents would have been deported back into harms way if this provision had been in effect in the past. This bill would prevent the Federal courts from reviewing many actions of the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service. thereby eliminating a great safeguard against abuse. Federal court orders have often been the last resort in correcting INS decisions that violate the law or the Constitution. For example. an INS policy denied Haitian refugees the right to apply for political asylum. That INS decision was overtumedfor good reasonby the Federal courts. This bill weakens protections against job discrimination for legal U.S. residents.
