Speaker. the Congress and the President are keenly aware of the importance of human rights in the Ukraine and all parts of the world. I have already spoken on the floor of the House today regarding the imprisonment and mistreatment of an eminent Soviet Jewish scientist. Dr. Viktor Brailovsky. whose only crime was his desire to leave the Soviet Union and emigrate to Israel. While over 2 million Americans are proud of their Ukrainian heritage and live freely in our society. over 47 million live under continuing oppression in their homeland without guarantees of civil rights. without selfgovernment. still fiercely proud of a cultural heritage that predates the establishment of the United States by 800 years.
