Mr. Speaker. for the past few years I have taken part in the congressional Call to Conscience Vigil in an attempt to draw attention to the plight of Soviet Jews and other prisoners of conscience who are denied basic human rights and privilegessuch as the right to practice their religion freely and to emigrate. In particular. I am concerned about the plight of Miss Galina Vilchinskaya. Miss Vilchinskaya. at 24. has already served 3 years in a Siberian concentration camp for teaching childrens Bible classes during summer vacation. She was released last August. only to be taken into custody again in November.
