Brian Pearson. are all Irish nationals. all marded to American citizens or legal residents. and are facing deportion. Earlier this year. I listened to the testimony of many of these families at a heanng before the Congressional Ad Hoc Committee for Irish Affairs. They have been living and working In the United States for many years. some for more than two decades. However. they live under the constant threat of deportation. Because of past political involvement. these men. their wives. even their children would most likely face violence and harassment if forced to live in Northern Ireland. Alter years of living in turmoil. these men came to the United States to settle and raise their families.
