Mr. Speaker. as a member of the Immigration Subcommittee of the House Judiciary Committee. I want to congratulate our distinguished colleague from Ohio. Congressman MICHAEL A. FEIGHAN. who has rendered this body outstanding service as chairman of the subcommittee. He has worked long and hard to perfect the recently passed immigration bill. a monumental undertaking. signed into law by President Lyndon B. Johnson. in the shadow of the Statue of Liberty. With his leadership Congress was able to write into law new and meaningful legislation which enables our immigration policies to meet todays needs and those of the foreseeable future. The explanation of the new immigration law that the distinguished gentleman has just introduced is an example of his thoughtfulness. It will enable all of the Members of this body to better understand the law and also enable us to explain it more completely to our constituencies. For this thoughtful service we are even further indebted to our respected colleague.
