I wish our Congresswoman would do her own job instead of worrying about other people's. Still no federal budget and the House went home for two weeks. It is really shocking even by DC standards how ineffective the current House is.

Ken,

This was my moment....... On March 12, 1949 the ship MARINE JUMPER dropped anchor in Boston harbor. Aboard were hundreds of immigrants permitted by President Harry Truman's administration to legally enter the USA and make their home here. They had been medically, intellecturally and physically gone over with a fine tooth comb. Among these people was Gunta Krasts, me. Thirteen years of age. I, with the greatest of gratitude and appreciation thank the USA and the American people, everyone, for the kindness shown my family, me, for keeping us safe, for being ablbe to live, work and grow old in this magnificent country. Also for the opportunity to learn a new language.
