And since that time. our worst fears have come true. Ive heard from people throughout my district about the terrible social harm that will result from this unjust policy. Russian Jews in the northern parl of my district who came to the United States as refugees from Communist antiSemntism. hardworking elderly Portuguese Immigrants who came to this country and worked hard for some time before in ess struck them. Indo Chinese residents who came to the United States because they had been supportive of our efforts during the Vietnam warthese are examples of the decent. hardworking. wholly Innocent people who are victims of last years grave error. The Massachusetts Legislature Is trying to address this. but It is an outrage for this Congross to impose on the States the financial responsibilty that ought to rest at the Federal level.
