DHS responds, mostly with silence To answer questions like Hogan's, the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) and the Asian Law Caucus filed Freedom of Information Act requests with the Department of Homeland security in 2007, seeking "records concerning policies and procedures on the questioning, search, and inspection of travelers entering or returning to the United States at ports of entry." Perhaps the government is using racial profiling to target certain travelers, said Farhana Y.\n For example, when a San Francisco-area software engineer offered to give a customs agent his wife's phone number so the agent could verify his identity, the customs agent asked, "Isn't it rude in Islamic culture to give a man a woman's phone number?"

It couldn't be timelier, coming on the heels of the administration's unrequited concessions to Russia in numerous areas: missile defense, strategic arms talks and the sale of Russian arms to Iran and Venezuela. The caucus aims to improve relations with Russia. This is challenging, as it needs to cast a critical eye on the executive branch's lopsided Russian agenda. Since January, the administration has given top priority to the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START) follow-on negotiations. They're rushing to complete it before the treaty expires in December.

"There were some things I wanted to do that I couldn't do, like study abroad. I didn't have enough money for going out of the state and I couldn't do internships. You need social security to do internships. Chehade and [Hong] are working tirelessly to raise awareness regarding the DREAM Act. As the founder of DREAMERS for Positive Change, Chehade gets to connect with other individuals that have similar experiences to Chehade's. Chehade's case has also received the attent...
