Frank Milewski, president of the Downstate N.Y. Division of the Polish American Congress, personally thanked the Brooklyn legislator for her support and for taking the extra step to be a co-sponsor as they prepared to march at the October 2nd Pulaski Day Parade in New York.
“What could be a better occasion than the Pulaski Parade to express our appreciation of her support,” said Milewski.
“General Pulaski not only fought for our freedom in America’s War of Independence but he was killed while fighting for this freedom. But until this Visa bill is passed, Polish citizens will continue to be restricted in their ability to come here.”
