Mr. Speaker. House Resolution 269. calling upon the Soviet Union to permit the emigration of Yuli Kosharovsky and his immediate family to Israel. Mr. Kosharovsky has committed no crime in the Soviet Union. Yet he and his family are constantly harassed by Soviet authorities for merely wanting to leave the Soviet Union and to practice his Jewish faith. The Soviet Government has denied him the right to emigrate. they have denied him the right to continue working in the Soviet Union. and they have confiscated his property. The Soviet action against Mr. Kosharovsky and his family is contrary to the Soviet Governments obligations under the Helsinki Final Act. the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. and the United Nations Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.
