On the recordJune 19, 1996
I congratulate both Senators on taking this step. I think there is nothing that is so discouraging and heartbreaking than to see the burnings that have taken place of churches across much of our country. I congratulate both the Senator from Massachusetts and the Senator from North Carolina. Maybe we can get unanimous support for denouncing this unexplainable and detestable series of acts. Whatever the cause, I think the message should go out that the U.S. Senate is firmly on record, both sides of the aisle, every political philosophy, deploring this kind of conduct. So I congratulate both Senators for introducing this bill. I know it will receive prompt and careful consideration by the Senate and the respective committees.
