Mint at West Point. thus reinforcing the promise of opportunity which the Statue of Liberty represents. This act is welcomed warmly by many of my constituents who are presently employed at the West Point Mint. Throughout much of history. the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island have welcomed immigrants from all nations into our country. These world renowned monuments have stood at the eastern edge of our country beckoning all peoples with a promise of freedom and opportunity. Today. more than 1 million Americans appreciate this welcoming message as descendants of the 17 million persons who were greeted by the Statue of Liberty as they entered our country.
