On the recordJune 12, 2003
Today is Anne Frank's birthday. If she had survived the horror of the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, then she would have been 74 years old. But she did not survive and because of her moving and thoughtful diary, the world got to know her and understand what it was like living in that apartment during the Nazis' reign of terror. Anne Frank's diary has educated generations around the world about tolerance and dignity. It has left a mark in a way that few books can, and the world is a better place because of Anne Frank's story. That is why I am proud to submit a resolution expressing the sense of the Senate that the United States Postal Service should issue a postage stamp commemorating Anne Frank and the Citizens' Stamp Advisory Committee should recommend to the Postmaster General that such a stamp be issued.
