The call to conscience serves to remind us and the Nation of the difficulties that Jews in the Soviet Union must endure in their attempts to be reunited with their families and to settle in the homeland of their choice. With deep conviction. I participate in this effort to assist Soviet Jews in achieving religious freedom. The number of Jews allowed to leave the Soviet Union is once again dwindling. Since the beginning of June. only 1 family of 7 has been allowed to leave. This alarmingly low figure leads one to suspect that the Soviets are tightening emigration quotas once again. Among those who remain. the situation has worsened. Soviet Jews fear that a new wave of arrests and harassment has begun.
