I said then that it had been the pride of our country that on great national issues the Congress of the United States always has abandoned party lines and risen to patriotic heights. I believe that Congress will always do so. I believe that this moment is one of the great occasions that demands that Congress rise far above party. In fact. party divisions have never occurred with respect to immigration legislation. I believe your votes today. gentlemen of the House. will have greater effect and do more for the welfare of the United States now. 50 years from now. and for all tine. than any of us can now see or any legislation we may conceive. Gentlemen.
