President. it is with great pride. with my distinguished colleague Senator DAMATO. I introduce the "Kate Mullany Historic Site Act." a bill to designate the Troy. New York home of pioneer labor organizer Kate Mullany as a National Historic Site. A similar measure introduced in the House of Representatives this year by Congressman MICHAEL R. MCNULTY has engendered a great deal of support and cosponsorship by over 100 members. Like many Irish immigrants settling in Troy. Kate Mullany found her opportunities limited to the most difficult and lowpaying of jobs. the collar laundry industry. Troy was then known as "The Collar City"-the birthplace of the detachable shirt collar.
