Not only am I concerned about the message this sends to our dedicated consular officers. I am just as concerned about the message this sends to terrorists. It says to them. feel free to lay the groundwork for an attack at home. apply for a visa. and come to America to finish the job. This is not the message that the U.S. should be conveying to terrorists. This Congress has already passed important legislation denying visas to terrorists. including in the PATRIOT and REAL ID Acts. The REAL ID Act. signed into law on May 11. 2005. specifically states that one who endorses or espouses terrorist activity is inadmissible. The real REAL ID Act became public law on May 11 of last year. 8 days after publication of this manual.
