Speaker. plerhaps the vast Inajority of the purmllnent resident aliens are Hispanic Anericans and Asian Pacific Americans. I would like to look into this to examine what ex.tctly is the basis for this. Legal pernanent. residenls are alsi required to reglalr for the milll .ary draft. and nearly 20.000 serve voluntarily in Americas Armed Forces. The record reveals that none have fought harder to protect. Americas freedom. In fact. one out ol every five Congrsmsional Medal of Honor reciplents has been a legal resident peranoaent allii or a naturalized Aincrieni citizen. The Supreme Court has already recigmli.ed that tIh first. arnendient of our CobLiutilon protects the rights of legal Immigrants as well as citizens. Mr. Speaker.
