It would seem that no one and nothing should prevent the achievement of such an aspiration. since it complies in full with Soviet laws and does not harm Soviet interests. It is my hope that "Shatter the Silence. Vigil 1979" will help improve emigration for Soviet Jews who find themselves in situations similar to the Inditsky family. To date 38 Members of Congress have participated in the 1979 vigil. each pleading the case of a "refusenik" before the House of Representatives. There is a great need to ease the exit requirements for Soviet Jews and to end the official and unofficial harassment of people who strive to gain their individual freedom.
