Not all of those who are speaking out on this question are consciously attempting to incite prejudice against the foreignborn. but their comments do have this effect nevertheless. My friend Henry Foner. who is president of the Joint Board Fur. Leather and Machine Workers Union. has been good enough to send me a copy of the resolution on this subject adopted by the unions executive board on November 20. 1971. and I include it at the conclusion of my remarks. Mr. Speaker and my colleagues. let us never forget that with the possible exception of the Indians. we are all immigrants or the descendants of immigrants and that it is the foreignborn and their children who have built this Nation of ours.
