Preservation of internment sites approved

"Internment-site preservation OKd: Sites of WWII prisons for some citizens to serve as reminder of U.S. rights abuses"

"The House, led by a Bakersfield Republican who urged Americans to protect citizens' rights during difficult times, gave final congressional approval Tuesday to a bill designed to preserve camps and assembly points across California and the West where about 120,000 Japanese Americans were interned by their own government during World War II."
