Speech #1090086890

The Voting Section has done an effective job enforcing voting rights on behalf of language minorities. but not. in the opinion of many. on behalf of racial minorities. Another area of concern Is the productivity and management of the Civil Rights Divisions Appellate Section. This section has been spending more time lately deporting illegal immigrants than enforcing civil rights. According to data provided by Mr. Kim. 62 percent of the briefs filed by the Civil Rights Divisions Appellate Section in FY 2005 involved defending the governments decision to deport illegal immigrants. Nearly 40 percent of attorney hours in the Civil Rights Divisions Appellate Section were devoted to this work. according to Mr. Kim.
