This resolution recognizes the Salvadoran Americans for their hard work. dedication and contributions to our stability and wellbeing of the United States. Forty years of internal political turmoil forced thousands and thousands of individuals from the Republic of El Salvadore to flee and come to this country. They sought peace and security and a better life in the United States. Madam Speaker. my mother was born in Central America. in Nicaragua. and immigrated to the United States to seek a better life. As the only Member of Congress of Central American descent. I am honored to recognize Salvadoran Americans and Salvadoran American Day.
