Mr. President. I am pleased to join today with my colleague from Maine in introducing a resolution which addresses the tragic plight of Soviet Jewry. The purpose of our resolution is to express the sense of the Congress that the Soviet Union should pursue a more humane emigration policy and stop harassing Jews and others seeking to emigrate. The resolution urges the President and other members of the administration to convey the concerns of Congress to Soviet officials. Mr. President. the climate in the Soviet Union has evolved into one in which antiSemitism thrives. Progressively greater injustices are permitted and the frequency and severity of discrimination against the Jewish population has grown dramatically.
