Good morning, and welcome.
I want to welcome the witnesses to our committee today, as we continue our study of refugee issues. I want to welcome, from Harvard Law School, Deborah Anker, clinical professor of law in the immigration and refugee program; Efrat Arbel, research assistant to Ms. Anker; and Francisco Rico-Martinez, co-director, FCJ Refugee Centre. Welcome to you.
I would imagine you have an opening statement.
We have from 11 until 12:45, at which time we will suspend to deal with other business. But right now I will pass it over to you, and you can make an opening statement if you feel so inclined.
