Bill Summary

Expresses the sense of the Congress that: (1) Haitians interdicted at sea should not be returned to Haiti without a determination of their fear of persecution in Haiti; and (2) any person with a credible fear of persecution should be paroled into the United States for the purpose of applying for political asylum.
