社评0223  亲如手足弟兄的格林眾议员





亲如手足弟兄的格林眾议员


週四晚间我们在皇家橡园俱乐部為刚康復出院的美国眾议院议员格林举办了一场温馨的餐会 ,庆贺他的康復及迎接龙年之到来。


记得当他首次在我们社区竞选眾议员时, 我们聚集一群社区领袖為他助选 。二十年来 ,他继续连任至今 ,在我的记忆中,他是我们多年来关係最密切之国会议员 。他总是在我们面临各种困难时——水灾 、疫情、 治安、 贺年、 婚丧喜庆都有他的身影。 


在当晚之庆宴上, 他对目前之国内外情势有着无比之忧虑, 诸如加萨走廊对婴𠒇之惨杀, 俄罗斯可能掀起之核灾难, 他对中美关係之关切, 他极力主张国民之间之交往非常重要, 是改善两国关係之基础。


在他的支持下, 我们已经组成德州多元族裔联盟, 并筹得超过十万元基金, 希望对我们今后维権争取平等之工作有所贡献。


老实说, 格林议员和我们已经是亲如弟兄, 无话不谈, 即便他在病床上也要通过电话向大家拜年。


我们大家忠心地祝福他為国為民继续守护我们的家园。




Congressman Al Green Is As Close As A Brother


Last Thursday night Mr. Stephen Le Sr. hosted a dinner party at the Royal Oaks Country Club for U.S. Congressman Al Green who had just been discharged from the hospital to celebrate his recovery and to welcome the arrival of the Year of the Dragon. 


I remember when Congressman Green first ran for Congress. We  gathered together a small group of leaders to help him in his election effort. He has now been re-elected for the last twenty years. In my memory he is the closest congressman we have been with for these many years. He has always been there for us during all of the challenges we have experienced over the years including the floods, the epidemic, public safety issues, weddings and funerals and whenever we faced all kinds of difficulties. 


At the party that night he was extremely worried about the current world situation such as the massacre of babies in the war and the possibility of a nuclear disaster. Expressing his concern about the Sino-U.S. relationship, Congressman Green strongly advocated that the relationship exchanges between both people are very important for both countries as well as for the whole world. 


With Congressman Green's support, we have formed the Texas Multi-Cultural Coalition hoping to protect our rights in the future. 


To be honest, we are as close as brothers. We have nothing we can’t talk about. Even when he was in the hospital bed, he called us to say, "Happy Lunar New Year!"


We all sincerely wish him well in the protection of our country and in his tireless efforts for the well-being of our community.
