Americans will gather in New York City in a show of solidarity with the persecuted Jews of the Soviet Union. Today. we stand together in this House of Representatives spiritually united in that show of solidarity. We declare to the Government of the Soviet Union that the plight of these victims will be heard. whether they are dissidents or refuseniks. It appears that the Soviets are not content with slowing Jewish emigration to a trickle. leaving people stranded in a nomans land of nonpersons. During the past year. they have intensified their attacks against the Jewish community and its cultural traditions. It is with great sadness that we read of the blinding of prisoner of conscience.
