Mr. President. a month ago the American people first learned of the Soviet Unions intention to require huge and unrealistic sums of money to be paid in order for educated Jews to receive permission to emigrate. This decree has now been made public to the Soviet Unionthe same day that negotiations on a trade deal were being carried out in Moscow by Henry Kissinger. This past Tuesday in condemning this Soviet extortion I made clear the link that must be made between removal of this ransom decree and future trade ties .with the Soviet Union. Other Senators. on both sides of the aisle. have since voiced their agreement with my position.
