  • SAALT Testimony to House Subcommittee on Constitution, Civil
    CONGRESSIONAL TESTIMONY Written Testimony for the Committee on the Judiciary Subcommittee on the Constitution, Civil Rights, and Civil Liberties U.S. House of Representatives Hearing on “Racial Profiling and the Use of Suspect Classifications in Law Enforcement Policy” June 17, 2010 Submitted by Deepa Iyer, Executive Director South Asian Americans Leading Together 1 ABOUT SAALT South Asian Americans Leading Together (SAALT), is a national, nonpartisan, non-profit organization that elevates the voices and perspectives of South Asian individuals and organizations to build a more just and inclusive society in the United States.1 SAALT’s strategies include conducting policy analysis and advocacy; building partnerships with South Asian organizations and allies; mobilizing communities to take action; and developing leadership for social change. SAALT works with a base of individual members and advocates and is the coordinating entity of the National Coalition of South Asian Organizations (NCSO), a network of 39 organizations in 13 geographic regions that provide direct services to, organize, and advocate on behalf of the South Asians in the United States. The experiences and local knowledge of member organizations within the NCSO in large part inform the policy recommendations included in this testimony. SAALT denounces the use of profiling based on race, religion, ethnicity, national origin, nationality, and immigration status. Especially since 9/11, South Asians, Sikhs, Muslims, and Arab Americans have been subjected to policies that are based in profiling by federal, state, and local law enforcement activities. SAALT works closely with partner organizations to identify the impact of profiling tactics and advocate against their utilization.2 SAALT strongly urges the passage of federal legislation, such as the End Racial Profiling Act, that eliminates profiling in all its forms, including those resulting from post-9/11 policies and practices.

And I had. Three thousand people had been murdered in a morning, not on a battlefield, not in their battleships as had happened at Pearl Harbor, but in their offices. They had been killed by a terrorist group that had promised to attack us, and which we had been unable to stop. The CIA had been unable to assassinate its leadership. It had also been unable to tell anyone when the terrorists had shown up in this country, even though it knew they were here. The national leadership had been un- willing to focus on the threat for months, although repeatedly warned to do so. And I had been unable to get either the bureaucracy or the new national leadership to act toward the terrorist network before the big attack in the way they would want to respond after thousands of Americans had been murdered.
