[S.J. Res. 131] 
Whereas the Organization for Rehabilitation through Training 
(ORT) has historically been the earliest pioneer in the use of sys-
tematic vocational and technical training as a strategy to banish 
deprivation and economic backwardness; and 
Whereas the ORT has provided productive channels for human ad-
vancement through the acquisition of skills for livelihood at 
times and places where such programs were nonexistent; and 
Whereas the ORT has assisted almost two million people in more 
than forty countries on five continents, thereby becoming the 
biggest nongovernmental voluntary program of vocational and 
job training in the world; and 
Whereas the ORT has become part of the array of ongoing services 
that are essential to communities, as evidenced by the rapid de-
velopment of technical training programs and educational insti-
tutions in many countries, including Argentina, Iran, Peru, and 
India, and by the continuing enrichment of the quality of educa-
tional services throughout Latin America; and 
Whereas the ORT has provided assistance needed for the assimila-
tion of hundreds of thousands of north African Jews by the 
French community, and for the migration and resettlement proc-
ess of Soviet Jewish refugees; and 
Whereas the ORT has been the means for the development of 
Israel's human resources and has provided the training for a 
msgor portion of Israel's skilled labor force: Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United 
CRT Centennial States of America in Congress assembled, That April 10, 1980, is 
no^.rnafmn
