I think It is timely. I think it is very important. I agree with the Senator from California that the vast majority of people in this country do support the premise of this resolution and support the fact that we are a country that has been made up. virtually. of refugees. All of usunless. I guess. we can call ourselves American Indianswere sort of refugees to this country at some time ourselves. I think that part of our problem. of course. is that we are in a situation where we have a time of recession and a time of high unemployment. and because of that. many of us are concerned and many of us are kind of afraid now and have started thinking about that. rather than the overall premise of. really. what built our country. the responsibility that we have. I look at the matter and I think I overreacted to it initially.
