Mr. Chairman. I rise today to express my strong support for an important provision that was included in the Immigration Reform Act of 1986. The provision is designed to reform the antiquated preference system. This was. and will continue to be. an area of great concern to myself and the gentleman from Massachusetts. Mr. DONNELLY. The inclusion of preference system reform was the result of a strong bipartisan effort. On July 4 of this year. we saw a great outpouring of emotion and the bolstering of pride as we celebrated the 100th birthday of that glorious ladythe Statue of Liberty.
