ANGEL ISLAND IMMIGRATION STATION RESTORATION AND PRESERVATION ACT2004-09-28

Mr. RADANOVICH

Mr. RADANOVICH. Mr. Speaker, I move to suspend the rules and pass the bill (H.R. 4469) to authorize appropriations to the Secretary of the Interior for the restoration of the Angel Island Immigration Station in the State of California.

Mr. RADANOVICH. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. Mr. Speaker, H.R. 4469, introduced by the gentlewoman from California (Ms. Woolsey) would authorize appropriations to the Secretary of the Interior for the restoration of the Angel Island Immigration Station in the State of California. The restoration of this battered structure known as the ``Ellis Island of the West'' is important to our Nation's history as it was the first place that more than 1 million immigrants entered the United States between 1910 and 1940, many of whom became U.S. citizens. Mr. Speaker, I urge adoption of the bill, and I reserve the balance of my time.

Mr. RADANOVICH. Mr. Speaker, I have no additional speakers, and I yield back the balance of my time.

LAKE NIGHTHORSE REDESIGNATION ACT2004-09-28

Mr. RADANOVICH

Mr. RADANOVICH. Madam Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.

Mr. RADANOVICH. Madam Speaker, I move to suspend the rules and pass the Senate bill (S. 2508) to redesignate the Ridges Basin Reservoir, Colorado, as Lake Nighthorse.

Mr. RADANOVICH. Madam Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. S. 2508, authored by our distinguished Senate colleague, Mr. Domenici, redesignates the reservoir known as the Ridges Basin Reservoir located on Basin Creek, a tributary of the Animas River in Colorado, as Lake Nighthorse. The reservoir is being constructed as a provision of the Colorado Ute Indian Water Settlement Act of 1988. This designation will honor the service of retiring Senator Ben Nighthorse Campbell who was instrumental in the enactment of this act among many others important to the western United States during his long career in public service.

Mr. RADANOVICH. Madam Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.

Mr. RADANOVICH. Madam Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. The gentlewoman from Guam (Ms. Bordallo) has introduced legislation that is poignant to the people of her territory and thousands of United States veterans. The United States' presence on this island traces back to 1898. But one of the most significant days that the U.S. and Guam share in our unique history is that of December 7, 1941. While the Japanese were attacking Pearl Harbor in Hawaii, they were also preparing an attack and invasion of Guam just hours later. I urge the adoption of this bill. Madam Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time.

Mr. RADANOVICH. Madam Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time.

Mr. RADANOVICH. Madam Speaker, I yield 1 minute to the gentleman from Arizona (Mr. Flake).
