Recent developments in the Soviet Union have confirmed our worst fearsin June 1982. only 182 Jews were allowed to leave. This is the lowest monthly figure since the movement began in the late 1960s and represents a 96percent drop from the June 1979 numbers. I know I speak for most Ameicans when I urge the Soviet Union to allow Ida Nudel to emigrate to Israel. to give her back her basic human rights. She is a dynamic. caring womanour "Guardian Angel"-a spirit whose dedication to justice should serve as a reminder to all of the freedom that many are still denied. I am very pleased to join my colleagues today in an effort to demonstrate our solidarity with those in the Soviet Union who yearn for even a sliver of the human liberties that we in the United States already enjoy.e
