There are over 8 million Americans of Polish origin and they would prevent it if no one else would. That being the case. it makes no sense at all to continue to keep these people in a limbo. The bill that I join as a cosponsor today provides an orderly way for this group to become permanent residents and eventually U.S. citizens if they so desire. One last point I would like to make is that these people are not illegal aliens. They have already been lawfully cleared to enter the United States either because of family relationships or based on other criteria. Ever since their arrival they maintained a lawful. if temporary. status in this country.
