I think we would make a mistake if we did not realize that Ellis Island is not the first thing that most people see as they come to the United States today. If you were to believe the numbers. the first things they see happen to be things that are found in San Diego. CA. I believe that we ought to recognize that national immigration is in fact a national challenge. a national problem. one this House has not seen fit to deal with and one that. regrettably. the House of Representatives has declined to work on for another month. Maybe also we ought to remember the words of Bishop Fulton J. Sheen in one of the last great speeches he gave at the National Prayer Breakfast here in Washington.
