NOVEMBER 13,1997 AUGUSTA FOCUS
Civil rights nominee hopeful
From page one
tion from Republican lawmakers
who say his strong support of af
firmative action for minorities
would cloud the way he would en
force civil rights laws on behalf of
everyone.
But Lee, a genial man who punc
tuates his words with broad smiles,
said he is not the radical activist
his opponents make him out to be.
He considers himself a consensus
builder who tries to strike a bal
ance between the needs of the
people and the letter of the law.
“The kind of remedies I’ve been
able to obtain for individuals have
been well within the law,” Lee
said. “If you look at what the ac
tual work has been, I have en
forced the law and I've been faith
ful to the law.
“It’s in the best interest of my
clients over the years to obtain
remedies, to obtain solutions, that
are unassailable by anyone,” he
said. “It is in no one’s interest to
have a remedy that doesn’t hold
up.”

Augusta Focus is a Walker
Group publication.
Sen. Orrin Hatch, chairman of
the Senate Judiciary Committee,
has declared Lee’s nomination
dead. The Utah Republican is a
prime sponsor of legislation to
eliminate race and gender as fac
tors in government decision-mak
ing, concepts that Lee supports.
Lee is believed to have the sup
port of nine of the Judiciary
Committee’s 18 members — eight
Democrats and one Republican. If
Lee receives 10 votes when the
committee convenes Thursday, his
nomination would advance to the
full Senate for a vote.
The White House has mobilized
Lee’s supporters in hopes their
pressure can sway one more sena
tor. More than two dozen organi
zations urged a favorable votein a
letter to members of the Senate
committee and the Senate leader
ship.
“We are deeply disappointed at
the inordinate politicizing of what
has every right to be a straightfor
ward confirmation hearing,” said
the Rev. Joan Brown Campbell,
general secretary of the National
Council ofthe Churchesof Christ in
the USA.

Lee said he copes with the resis
tance on Capitol Hill by reminding
lgimnlf btil:t it pales n?yinhfi the
latant experienced par
ents, William and Pui Jen Lee, Chi
nese immigrants whoranalaundry
on the edge of Harlem.
“What my parents suffered in
terms of the name-calling, the epi
thets, beingdenied employment and
housing, that’s not only the story of
my family, but also is the story of
many American families,” Lee said.
“It was a hard life. I came out of it
with a lot of hope. My father was a
man who believed very much in the
American dream. I know that he
would be proud that I have stepped
forward and tried to do this.”
It is a lesson he is trying to teach
his three children — Angela, 15,
Mark, 7 and Nicholas, 5 —as they
wait to learn whether they will be
moving from their Los Angeles
home to the nation’s capitol.
“Mark originally told us he was
looking forward to Washington be
cause he could spend foreign
money,” Lee said. “He thought
Washington was a foreign country.
I don’t know if he's right or very
astute.”
