I have asked our colleagues to join with myself and BOB EDGAR of Pennsylvania. who has also asked for time under a special order. for a colloquium to observe this day. As the great moral philosopher Reinhold Neibur saidMans capacity for justice makes democracy possible. but mans inclination toward injustices makes democracy necessary. That is why Congress has always sought to exert leadership in the area of Human Rights. through legislation funding refugee assistance and through this kind of colloquium. to state without equivocation our commitment to the universal rights of man. We must remind the world of the shelter the recognition of Human Rights affords. As the keeper of these values. and as concerned men and women. we must remember the admonition in Romans XII: Rejoice with those who rejoice. weep with those who weep. live in harmony with one another.
