Pt. 2 February 12. 2008 antiNazi underground could have received an education. raised a family. and had the privilege of serving the last three decades of his life as a Member of the United States Congress. I will never be able to express fully my profoundly felt gratitude to this great country." Madam Speaker. one of the things that I regularly say about the United States of America. and I think like most of the people who are here in this Chamber at this moment. we were born here. and people who were born here can have a tendency to take the greatness of the United States of America for granted. But I will say that ToM LANTOS demonstrated fully. through every single aspect of his life. the profound appreciation that an immigrant has for something that many of us who are native born have a tendency to take for granted. And I regularly fight against that. and seeing someone like TOM LANTOS has played a big role in inspiring me. And I know there are other great immigrants who serve in this Congress and obviously in this country as well. And I think that his life underscores that. As I look over and see our distinguished majority leader.
