Mr. President. I rise today to call my colleagues attention to one of the most eagerly anticipated holidays each year in my home state of Michigan. Paczki Day. The day before Lent is known in other parts of the country as Fat Tuesday or Mardi Gras. but in Metro Detroit and in other Michigan communities we celebrate Paczki Day. Paczkis. which are similar to jellyfilled doughnuts. were introduced to Metro Detroit by new immigrants from Poland who settled in the city of Hamtramck. Michigan. Today. thanks to the people of Hamtramck. Michigan is the paczki capital of the United States. with several million dozen paczkis sold every year.
