Speech #970080657

Mr. Speaker. I am pleased to join with my colleagues in offering my support for House Resolution 152. which urges the President to express our continued opposition to the illegal and immoral imprisonment of Anatoly Shcharansky. and requests that Soviet authorities allow him to be given proper medical treatment and be permitted to emigrate to Israel. Since his arrest. Anatoly Shcharansky has become so ill that his life is now in danger. Soviet authorities have not provided him with adequate medical care. and as a result his condition is extremely perilous. We cannot forget these dissidents who are continuing to be victimized within the Soviet borders by repressive internal policies of that nations leaders.
