New York Times was printed in the June 18. 1973. personal knowledge of these cases. I must be concerned about any violation of human rights. In relation to these Ukrainians. as well as to Soviet Jews and all other Soviet refugees. the United States has announced a policy of welcoming to this country all Soviet refugees. without regard to quota restrictions. I am pleased to have been the sponsor of this proposal. which took effect on September 30. 1972. In my concern for these Soviet citizens who are the victims of oppression I have asked the President to take up the question of these Ukrainian prisoners with Secretary Brezhnev as well as the plight of Soviet Jew. Furthermore. we must continue to press for the Inclusion of the Jackson/MillsVanik amendment in the Trade Reform Act to assist those oppressed people in the U.S.S.R. who seek to emigrate.
