		Emanuel Celler (May 6, 1888–January 15, 1981) was a politician from New York who served in the United States House of Representatives for almost 50 years, from March of 1923 to January of 1973.

		One of the few who did speak out for rescue was US Representative Emanuel Celler, Democrat of Brooklyn, who challenged the Roosevelt administration even though he was a staunch New Dealer and represented voters who overwhelmingly supported FDR.
		Celler was adept at snappy phrases that went straight to the point.
		And that was made possible thanks to the efforts of those activists in the United States, including Congressman Emanuel Celler, who would not be silenced in their campaign for a modern-day Exodus.

		Celler was adept at snappy phrases that went straight to the point--what are now called sound bites.
		Celler said Long's professions of sympathy for the refugees were nothing more than "crocodile tears," since he was the one blocking their admission.
		Congressman Emanuel Celler did not have a direct hand in those rescue operations, but his compassionate heart and sharp tongue clearly played an important part in the events which began on Passover, 1943, and culminated in the saving of hundreds of thousands of lives one year later.

		Celler?s determination to fight U. immigration quotas was particularly reinforced one Saturday during World War II, when a bearded rabbi came to his home.
		Celler always left the door unlocked on the Sabbath so his constituents could enter without ringing or knocking.

		Celler was chairman of the House Judiciary Committee when, in 1972, he unexpectedly lost the Democratic primary to Elizabeth Holtzman, who went on to win the election and serve as a Representative until 1981.

		This was my introduction, as a freshman member of Congress, to how power works on Capitol Hill: Following the lead of the President, a small group of us introduced a measure to extend the term of House members from two years to four.
		Given its support in the White House, we thought we had a chance for success, so we were optimistic when we approached the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, an awesome and fearsome New Yorker named Emanuel Celler.
