I thank the gentleman for yielding. Mr. Speaker. I appreciate my colleagues pointing out the contribution and importance of Hispanic Heritage Week. Unfortunately. I did not hear the earlier part of your discussions here. I got into this whole area of the problems and the potential of the Hispanic population back some years ago when I was representing a rural area in southern Illinois in the State legislature and accidentally found myself as a spokesperson for migrant laborers and started digging in. The next thing I knew. I was involved in taking a look at where we were and where we were going.
