I move to strike the last word. Mr. Chairman. I was greatly disturbed and angered to learn that the State Department has recommended that the special immigration status of some 10.000 Polish nationals that are currently residing in this country be revoked. Since Poland declared martial law in 1981. these people have resided here under voluntary departure status in order to preserve their freedom. and in some cases. their lives. As we all know. the Polish Government declared martial law to crush the Solidarity labor movement and deny the Polish people the right to protest unfair actions of their government.
