I am delighted to speak in support of this resolution and commend my colleague. the distinguished chairman of the Committee on Foreign Affairs. the gentleman from Indiana. . for introducing this bill recognizing GermanAmerican Day. The United States has been greatly enriched through the contributions of her citizens of German heritage. From Carl Schurz to Albert Einstein. our history. our science. our art. our politics. and our diplomacy. even our cuisine. have benefited significantly from what German immigrants have brought to us from their homeland across the Atlantic. Today. our recognition of the many and varied achievements of GermanAmericans serves as a reminder of the very close ties between this country and Germany. Germany is a pillar of Europe. its economic powerhouse. and a force for peace and stability.
