Mr. Speaker. I rise today to honor the 205th anniversary of Polands first Constitution on May 3. The Polish Constitution of 1791 was the first liberal Constitution In Europe. narrowly preceded by our own Constitution in 1787. I would also like to announce my cosponsorship of the House Concurrent Resolution 165. to honor the Polish Constitution of 1791 and to promote democracy in EastCentral Europe. Throughout our Nations history. the sons and daughters of Poland have immigrated to our shores. In fact. a native son of Poland. Thaddeus Koscluszko. fought alongside General Washington during the Revolutionary War. Upon returning to Poland. alter his heroic efforts for American liberty.
