I will speak on the subject of my special order. that is. on the question of Soviet Jewry. Mr. Speaker. this August marks the 10th anniversary of the signing of the Helsinki Final Act. Among other things. this international document. of which the Soviet Union is a signatory. calls for the right of Jewish cultural expression and emigration from the Soviet Union. I rise today not only out of a sense of conviction. but of moral outrage. I rise because of the tragic cry heard throughout the world emanating from the mouths of Soviet Jews who ask nothing more from the Soviet Government than the basic rights guaranteed to them through the Helsinki accords.
