Synopsis

Excerpt from Terrorism, Asylum Issues, and U. S. Immigration Policy: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Immigration and Refugee Affairs of the Committee on the Judiciary, United States Senate, One Hundred Third Congress, First Session

Determining a standard for threshold determinations is one of the most important aspects of designing such a system, and we look forward to working with the Subcommittee on this issue. The credible fear interview provided in S. 667 is similar to the inter views presently conducted in asylum prescreening offices. Under this program, approximately detained aliens have been inter viewed. Thirty-two percent of those have been found to have a cred ible fear of persecution and have been recommended for parole. Sixty-eight percent have been found not to have a credible fear and have not been recommended for parole.

The proposed increase in penalties under S. 667 for alien smug gling from 5 to 10 years would greatly enhance the deterrent effect of alien smuggling prosecutions. The United States is facing a major problem with respect to alien smuggling by organized crime syndicates, and current sentencing are too lenient.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes terrorism in the wake of 9/11 and the complexities of asylum issues, illegal Chinese workers, and smuggling. It takes an in-depth look at the history of asylum in the United States, the mechanics of human smuggling, and the problems facing immigration control. The author also details real-world consequences of these issues in a post-9/11 world, with specific examples of the smuggling process, terrorist activity, and the plight of refugees. The insights within are a powerful testament to shifting paradigms of immigration, human rights, and national security, forcing a new and honest conversation about asylum and terrorism in the 21st century.
