On the recordJuly 29, 1996
House Concurrent Resolution 155 notes our continuing concern about the situation in Kosova and its Albanian majority. As we have focused most of our attention on Bosnia, the people of Kosova have suffered under unlawful amendments to their Yugoslav constitution, police repression, employment discrimination, restricted education, expulsion of international observers and more. Indeed, many believe the seeds of the conflict that erupted in the former Yugoslavia were sown in Kosova. I hope all Members will join in sending a message to the Kosovan people that we have not forgotten them and that the United States Congress will continue to press for restoration of their civil and political rights. Let us adopt this resolution today.
