Mr. Shcharansky is currently serving a 13year term in a Soviet prison. I am pleased to be a cosponsor of House Resolution 67. a resolution expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that the Soviet Union should immediately release Mr. Shcharansky and allow him to emigrate in accordance with article 13 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. That article states that "everyone has the right to leave any country. including his own. and return to his country." I am also very disturbed by the treatment of Ms. Ida Nudel. whose persecution by the Soviet authorities is an outrage.
