The Soviet Unions activities in humiliating and in persecuting Soviet Jews is an affront to the free world and to the standards of our civilization. We in Congress cannot be silent in the face of the open harrassment and oppression of Jews by the Soviet Union. I am pleased to cosponsor the joint resolution. introduced by my colleague Senator PELL. which expresses the sense of the Congress that the Government of the Soviet Union should respect the rights of its citizens to practice their religion and to emigrate. and that the U.S. delegation to the United Nations Commission on Human Rights should be instructed by the President to carry this message to the Commission.*
