English is the official language of this Nation. Newcomers to our great country struggle day in and day out to learn our language and to become full members of our society. I want to share with the Members something about the personal struggle of an immigrant. my father. who knew something about this issue. Ted DeLauro. an Italian immigrant. came to this great nation from Italy at the age of 13. He came eagerly. in pursuant of the American dream. a good education. and economic prosperity. Tragically. my father had to give up part of that dream. an opportunity for an education.
