Mr. Speaker. New Jersey is proud of the hundreds of thousands of Italian Americans who have contributed so much to the "Garden State." The close proximity of the State to the entry Port of New York plus the readiness of thousands of industrial jobs made New Jersey an attractive alternative to many millions of immigrants of all ancestry. Mr. Speaker. there exist in New Jersey many organizations dedicated to the rememberance of the shining ideals which allowed these immigrants to transform New Jersey into the economic giant which is the State today. One such organization is the Central Jersey Chapter. American Italian Historical Association.
