Mr. President. I want to take this opportunity to give recognition to Jim Bailey. the Director of the Northern Service Center for the Immigration and Naturalization Service in Lincoln. NE. Mr. Bailey will be leaving that post shortly to head the Southern Service Center in Texas. The northern region covers my home State of Illinois and Mr. Bailey has been attentive to the needs of the congressional delegation in my State when it comes to constituent inquiries about immigration. I was particularly impressed when. at one briefing for congressional staffs and the public organized by my office. Mr. Bailey made a presentation on the 0 and P entertainer visas in English and then summarized his remarks in Spanish for those members of the audience who could understand them better in that language. Since 1990. when Jim Bailey was assigned to be Director. the Northern Service Center has installed a congressional response unit and an information unit to respond to congressional offices and public inquiries. The Center has also completed 10.000 Cuban adjustment cases over and above the normal workload of a service center. Following enactment of the Immigration Act of 1990. under Jim Baileys leadership and direction. the Center also established a Philippine Veterans Naturalization Program. As a member of the Immigration and Refugee Affairs Subcommittee. I am well aware that our District Director in Chicago and our Regional Service Center Director are among the best that the Immigration and Naturalization Service has. I wish Jim Bailey well in his new position.
