Mr. Speaker. I wish to join with many of my colleagues in support of the House Joint Resolution 397. which will enable the United States to participate in the resettlement of alien refugees and escapees who are presently under the mandate of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. While I would like to go further than what this resolution allows. I believe it is a step in the right direction. We in America have always opened our hearts to those who are in need of our help. Let us welcome them to our shores. let us renew their faith in their fellow man. yes. let us take them to our bosom so that America can demonstrate. once again. our concern for the oppressed.
