The revolutionary law." Mr. President. we in this Chamber have recently spent many long hours discussing freedom in Russia. More than 70 of my colleagues and I have joined in attaching an amendment to the foreign trade bill calling for free emigration of all peoples. Yet. there are those who would repudiate their support for this measure by advocating recognition of Castro. the same Castro who. on April 6. 1973. ended the airlift. discontinuing Cuban freedom flights and thereby making his remaining 8 million subjects prisoners of his tyrannical island nation. In this Chamber. we have also expressed our outrage at the disgraceful treatment accorded the Nobel Laureate Alexander Solzhenitsyn and indicated our shock at the revelations in his book. "Gulag Archipelago." and yet we have not indicated corresponding emotions about Castros repressive regime.
