I very much hope that our expression of concern will in some way help Vladimir and Anna Livshits and their two children Boris and Maria. The Members of this House should know that our letters do make a difference for some Soviet Jews. Three years ago. I began writing on behalf of Boris Dekhovich. a Soviet Jew denied permission to emigrate. After several appeals on his behalf. which. according to Soviet practice. were officially refused for delivery. Boris Dekhovich and his family were given permission to emigrate last fall. The MinnesotaDakotas Action Council for Soviet Jewry based in Minneapolis brought the Livshits family to my attention. As a member of the Minnesota Elected Officials for Soviet Jewry.
