Officially sanctioned antiSemitism continues unabated in the Soviet Union. the November 1984 showing on Leningrad television of a blatantly antiSemitic documentary is but a recent example of this tragic phenomenon. Mr. Speaker. despite these dismal trends. we cannot despair. We in the Congress must redouble our efforts on behalf of Soviet Jews and all those denied their most basic human rights. We must not rest until all those who wish to emigrate are allowed to do so. until all those who seek to practice their religion freely may do so. and until all those who struggle to study their culture. history. and language are free to do so. I join our many colleagues today in reaffirming my commitment to the just and noble cause of freedom for Soviet Jews.*
