As the only Holocaust survivor in the Congress. his support of this resolution means very much to all of us. and particularly to me. H. Res. 226 is a resolution to recognize American government officials who played a critical role in the creation and activity of the War Refugee Board in an effort to help rescue Jews and other persecuted minorities during the years of the Holocaust. Because of their actions and because of their bravery. an unknown number of people were saved from the horrific reign of Adolf Hitler and his followers. Specifically. we are commending the actions of Secretary of Treasury Henry Morgenthau.
