Mr. Chairman. America is truly a nation of immigrants. Every American. every Member of this House can trace his ancestry back to England or France. Germany or Poland. Italy or Ireland. or some other land across the sea. It occurs to me also that our Nation is a far stronger. better place to live in because of the vast contributions made by foreignborn Americans. men like Einstein. Von Braun. Frankfurter. Celebrezze. Trojan. and scores of others. past and present. who scaled the heights in business. commerce. government. medicine. and the arts and sciences. I have heard very little opposition to this legislation from within my congressional district.
