It is a real burden that we face and a real obligation that we have to do a better job as Senators and Members of Congress as we look forward to the 21st century. It is my own personal view that America has not seen its best and brightest days. I think of my father. who came to this country as an immigrant from Russia at the age of 18 in 1911 without any formal education. and my mother. who came with her parents from Poland in 1905 at the age of 5. and how much better it has been for my brother. my two sisters and me. and how much better it has been for my two sons. Shanin and Steve. and how much better it can be for Tracey and for Silvi Specters generation if we do our jobs in the U.S. Congress.
