Mr. Chairman. I rise in support of the Roybal amendment. All of you can hear and see I have an accent. I was born in Europe. I was born in Poland. and I am an emigrant. Obviously I am an American citizen or I could not serve in this body. However. the most detestable thing in the world is to have an ID card. The Jews in Europe. in Poland where I was born. were wearing yellow stars. Is that what we really want? I was so touched by what Mr. MINETA said that I almost feel like crying. That was a detestable time in America. we do not want to do this again.
