I am pleased that H.R. 15183 had the strong endorsement and support of the Department of State. the Department of Justice. and the Department of Health. Education. and Welfare. The Secretary of State recognized the adjustment of the status of Cuban refugees as an item of high priority. The whole matter has been given careful study and consideration by these three agencies. the Committee on the Judiciary. and by many voluntary and civic organizations. I call on my colleagues in the House to support this legislation to give Cuban refugees the opportunity to move forward on their own and share the advantages and responsibilities of our great country.
