* Revising the June 2003 Department of Justice Federal Guidance on Racial
   Profilingto eliminate the border and national security loophole, to              
   include profiling based on religion and ethnic origin, and to ensure that the 
   guidance is enforceable.

* Eliminating Department of Homeland Security programs that result in racial
   profiling in immigration enforcement.

* Securing passage of federal legislation to ban racial profiling - the "End
   Racial Profiling Act."
