Mr. Speaker. I would like to take this opportunity to express my very best wishes to Lev Elbert. who will celebrate his 36th birthday on September 30. Lev and Inna Elbert and their son Carmi are refuseniks who have paid a high price for their attempts to emigrate to Israel. They have been harassed. their health has suffered. they have lost jobs. Lev was imprisoned in a labor camp. Carmi was attacked and insulted by other students at his school. Yet repeated attempts to intimidate this brave family have not succeeded in breaking their spirit or determination. The latest reports about the Elberts contain some better news.
