Speaker. I rise to urge my colleagues to join me in supporting House Joint Resolution 266. which designates the month of October as "Polish American Heritage Month." The resolution will be considered today. America has a long history as the land of opportunity for immigrants from all nations. The basic American values of individual freedom. justice. and equality have drawn people from around the world seeking to escape the oppression of their homelands. "Polish American Heritage Month" will focus on the unique contributions that both native Poles and Polish Americans have made to American history. From the very beginning of our struggle for liberty.
