Mr. Speaker. each passing day extends the human suffering of 2 million Jews living in the Soviet Union. With each day. the pain of forced imprisonment within the country of their birth ravages the spirit of the more than onehalf million Soviet Jews who have applied to emigrate. Their longing for religious and intellectual freedom has brought only heartbreak. shattered lives. incarceration and forced separation from families and loved ones. Each day is another day of travesty to the spirit which led the nations of the world to formulate the Helsinki Accords and the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
