Mr. Speaker. as a member of the 97th Congressional Class for Soviet Jewry. I have pledged to do my part to pressure the Soviet Union into liberalizing its emigration policies. Accordingly. I have agreed to take up the cause of David Ooldfarb. a distinguished molecular biologist and former member of the Soviet Academy of Sciences. who has been trying since 1979 to emigrate from the Soviet Union. Mr. Goldfarb. who is 64 years old and a Soviet Jew. seeks to be reunited with his son. Aleksandr. and to live and work in the State of Israel. David Goldfarb is a veteran of World War II. having lost his leg in the defense of Stalingrad.
