  SUPPORT RESOLUTION EXPRESSING OUTRAGE AT RACIST, ANTI-CATHOLIC, AND 
                ANTI-SEMITIC REMARKS OF KHALID MOHAMMAD

  (Mr. LANTOS asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. LANTOS. Mr. Speaker, as racial, religious, and ethnic violence 
flares in Europe and the former Soviet Union, we must remember that the 
United States is not immune. On November 29, 1993, at Kean College in 
New Jersey, Mr. Khalid Mohammad, a senior representative of the Nation 
of Islam, delivered an outrageous and violent attack on the principles 
of racial, religious, and ethnic intolerance. His attempt to incite 
violence by preaching bigotry and hatred must be swiftly and forcefully 
condemned by this body.
  Mr. Speaker, joined by some of the most distinguished Republicans and 
Democrats in this House, I am introducing a resolution expressing the 
outrage of the House of Representatives at the remarks of Mr. Mohammad 
and condemns all manifestations of intolerance, including racism, anti-
Catholicism, and anti-Semitism. I urge all of my colleagues to join me 
in this effort.
