Mr. Speaker. I urge all Members to support this legislation as a first step toward correcting some of the inequities which have arisen since the revision of our immigration policies in 1965. I further urge the Judiciary Committee to give immediate consideration to my bill. H.R. 16657. and similar measures. This legislation is designed to lift unforeseen barriers to immigration from Ireland. Germany. and other Western European nations which have resulted from the 1965 act. In this way. we will carry forward more effectively and humanely our promise of equal consideration and justice for all persons seeking admission to the United States.
