We cannot. in good conscience. turn our backs on those who suffer cruel persecution and oppression because they wish to practice their religion freely without fear in the land of their choice. These intolerable situations exist now in the Soviet Union. While the Kremlin persists in such inhuman practices. we in the United States must protest them. There are thousands of Soviet Jewish citizens who have been imprisoned for seeking their legal right to emigrate from Russia or for practicing their Jewish religion. Many have lost their jobs. their homes. have been separated from their families. or risked their lives because they refuse to submit to the Soviets tactics of violence and persecution. Their names are legion: Ida Nudel.
