We assured them that we have not abandoned the cause of fairness and justice. as it seemed last year when the Supreme Court stripped away many protections. setting back the clock on civil rights. Mr. Speaker. we are going to hear the same rhetoric. that this bill is antibusiness. and a quota bill. and that President Bush has indicated he will veto it. I am very concerned about these remarks because this bill has been compromised to the hilt. and I am concerned also about the administrations lack of response to recent derogatory comments made by the Japanese justice minister about American blacks. The Japanese had made similar comments about Hispanics some 2 years ago.
