Mr. President. today I introduce the Wartime Treatment Study Act. This bill would create two factfinding commissions: one commission to review the U.S. governments treatment of German Americans. Italian Americans. and European Latin Americans during World War II. and another commission to review the U.S. governments treatment of Jewish refugees fleeing Nazi persecution during World War II. This bill is long overdue. I am very pleased that my distinguished colleagues. Senators GRASSLEY. KENNEDY. LIEBERMAN. CORZINE and WYDEN. have joined me as cosponsors of this important bill. I thank them for their support. The victory of America and its allies in the Second World War was a triumph for freedom. justice. and human rights.
