Speaker. while we recognize that our own Nation is not any model of tolerance. we recognize that we have our own racial and ethnic tensions. But we do not have. as a criteria for acceptance in our society. any requirement that ones ancestors be Mayflower descendants. The resurgence of antiSemitism and the religious and ethnic intolerance in Europe concerns many of us greatly. "Ethnic cleansing" in Bosnia. the beatings of Asian refugees in Great Britain. and the resurgence of antiSemitism throughout Europe is indicative of an ailing society. In response to such outrageous bigoted allegations. I urge my colleagues in the Congress to let our voices be heard.
