this resolution is designed to let our friends in Mexico know that we understand the grief and sorrow inflicted upon them as a result of the tragic death of Luis Donaldo Colosio. The assassination of this rising political star--the candidate of his party in Mexico's upcoming Presidential elections--touches all of us. Luis Donaldo Colosio was a very gifted and talented public servant, and his cold-blooded murder robs Mexico--indeed it robs all of the nations of the Western Hemisphere--of one of its most prominent and promising political leaders. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Colosio family and with the people of Mexico. Mr. President, I hope this resolution will be adopted without further delay.
