==Rep. Doyle wants security check reviewed==
Friday, August 04, 2006
The congressman who helped two cafeteria workers in Pittsburgh get their jobs back after the U.S. Department of Homeland Security removed them has asked for congressional review of the screening process by the federal agency.
U.S. Rep. Mike Doyle, D-Forest Hills, sent a letter to the chairman and ranking member of the House committee with jurisdiction over homeland security, asking for a review of how background checks are conducted.
Judy Miller and Mary Boughton work for Sodexho Inc., a company contracted to run the cafeterias in the U.S. Courthouse and William S. Moorehead Federal Building, Downtown. On July 5, they were removed from their positions because they were deemed "unsuitable" in a background check.
It took several days -- and the insistance of Mr. Doyle's staffers -- before Homeland Security cleared up mistakes that were made in the women's checks. They were out of work for two weeks, though Sodexho has agreed to give them back pay.
"It seems to me that Homeland Security should use more common sense and treat Americans with more consideration," Mr. Doyle said yesterday in a news release. "Instead, it appears that [Homeland Security] has taken the dictum 'shoot first and ask questions later' a little too much to heart."
