Since returning to Moscow. he has been unable to find employment as a scientist. If he remains unemployed. he could be rearrested for "parasitism." Victor Brailovsky is only one of the more than 20.000 refuseniks in the Soviet Union. But his hardships are theirs. and his suffering and the suffering of the other 400.000 Soviet Jews who seek the right to emigrate are shared by all of us in this body today. For the sake of Victor Brailovsky and the Soviet Unions 21/2 million Jews. I urge Konstantin Chernenko and other Soviet leaders to ease the harsh plight of Soviet Jewry and permit them the right to emigrate.*
