The Soviet Government has not eased up on its relentless persecution of Jewish citizens and those who share their love for freedom. The exercise of religious freedom is a grave crime against the state in the Soviet Union. and we must never lose sight of that horrendous reality. Rather than easing up. the situation is growing worse. Last years emigration rate from the Soviet Union. was a tenth of what it was in 1979. while the number of those who wish to leave spirals. We cannot stand mute while the situation worsens. We. who pride ourselves on freedom that we take for granted. have a solemn obligation to those for whom freedom is only a distant dream.
