    Calif apologizes for past persecution of Chinese

    Calif apologizes for past persecution of Chinese

    SACRAMENTO, Calif. — The California Legislature did not let a weeks-long budget debate prevent it from unanimously apologizing for the state's past persecution of the Chinese immigrants who built the state's railroads, gold mines and agriculture industry.

    The Senate earlier this month approved the resolution expressing regret for 19th Century and early 20th Century laws that "resulted in the persecution of Chinese living in California." The Assembly backed the measure in late June, and the Secretary of State put it on the state's official record Friday.

    The resolution lists the specific laws aimed at stemming immigration from China and intimidating immigrants already in the country.

    Assemblyman Paul Fong of Mountain View, the grandson of a Chinese immigrant, says he now will try to persuade Congress to pass a similar resolution.
