Mr. Speaker. when Secretary of State Alexander Haig meets with Soviet Minister Andrei Gromyko we on Capitol Hill would like Secretary Haig to make known American disquietude over Soviet dissidents whose only crime is to express a desire for such basic liberties as freedom of expression. the right to practice the religion of ones choice. or to emigrate. For this reason. I have cosigned two letters urging Secretary Haig to bring up the issue of Soviet treatment of dissidents to Gromyko. The first letter. written by Congressman FISH of New York. deals with a number of dissidents. including physicist Andrei Sakharov.
