'American Academy of Religion v. Napolitano' Jameel Jaffer, director National Security
Project speaking: "This was a hearing before the appeals court about the Constitutionality
of the government's exclusion of Professor Ramadan. Which has now gone on for around
four years. The government is relying on a statute that we think is completely inapplicable
and we believe that their real reason for excluding Professor Ramadan is disagreement
with his political views, which is an unconstitutional reason for exclusion." Melissa Goodman, ACLU
attorney speaking: "We're hoping that the court agrees with us. That the exclusion of
Professor Ramadan is unconstitutional because the government has not provided any basis
for keeping him out." Learn More. Do More. aclu.org/exclusion
