Speaker. I am pleased to have been one who has signed discharge petition No. 1. 84th Congress. for action on H. R. 501. to amend and revise the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952. The Third District of Connecticut. which I represent. has a large proportion of naturalized American citizens who. in the majority of cases. find it virtually impossible to hope for reunion with members of their families and loved ones from foreign countries. This is because of the stringent and discriminatory provisions of the McCarran Act which. in my estimation. was designed to make it more difficult for aliens of certain countries to gain the privileges of American residence and citizenship. Those countries. such as Italy.
