I want to thank the gentleman from New York for his remarks and for sharing with this country the historical memory of what has happened and transpired with the Haitians. Mr. Speaker. I want to end my special order with one special appeal to the American public. I want the American public to understand or to see the scenario that refugees from Cuba. from Nicaragua. from El Salvador. from many. many other countries have been allowed into this United States without the kind of hysteria. harassment. demagoguery and seeming racism that has faced the Haitians. I appeal to my colleagues. in this special order. to do it fairly. take one measure and that be a measure of justice. that be a measure of law and of truth.
