Mr. Speaker. I rise today to honor Manuel and Maria Marin. a classic American success story. Mr. and Mrs. Madn will be honored at a reception this Saturday at the Sheraton Meadowlands in East Rutherford. NJ. America is a land of immigrants. and this family exemplifies the immigrant success story. Manuel and Maria arrived in the United States with only the clothes on their backs and a few personal possessions in May 1980. They were searching for a better way of life and an escape from the Communist dictatorship of Cuba. Despite their bad fortune. the Mafins dedicated themselves to creating a new life in their adopted homeland.
