In its 1995 Concluding Observations, the Human Rights Committee expressed
concern that excludable aliens in the U.S. enjoyed a lower standard of due process.
Unfortunately, through a combination of legislative and regulatory changes over the past
10 years, access to due process and effective remedy has been significantly curtailed for
aliens who are in the process of being expelled from the U.S.
