I would like once again to bring to the attention of the Members the plight of the Paritsky family. Jewish "refuseniks" living in Karkov in the Soviet Union. Alexander Paritsky. his wife Polina. and their two daughters. have been trying to obtain exit visas for the past 3 years. The Soviet Government claims Alexander Paritsky is privy to state secrets and they have just informed him that his visa review will not take place until 1981. Since they have applied for visas. the Paritskys life has never been the same. Alexander was fired from his job at the Science Institute in Kharkov in 1977 and then sacked from his job as an electrician in a tractor factory. After being unemployed for 3 months.
