Once again the plight of the Soviet Jews is front page news all across the country. Once again we feel compelled to meet here in the House to bring to light the support of the Congress for efforts to allow the Soviet Jews to elect to leave that country and its oppression behind and seek freedom in a new land. The Soviet Union has created a system. based on visa fees. conscription and imprisonment. that denies the Soviet Jews any freedom of choice. They are. by the very nature of the actions of the government of the Soviet Union. prisoners. Our country is seeking to reach new levels of understanding with the Soviet Union.
