I find it sad that our famous slogan. "Give me your tired. your poor. your huddled masses yearning to breathe free." As we know. Mr. Speaker. these are the words on the Statue of Liberty which welcomed many of our parents. grandparents. and greatgrandparents. Within this past week. however. this administration effectively littered this inspirational message with the following graffiti: "except for Cubans. Haitians. Mexicans. and others who do not reflect our unique vision of what America is all about." Now we have the tragedy of 32 Haitian refugees drowning while attempting to escape to the land of liberty. How ironic that the country that they escaped to in life accepted them only in death. fl 1230
