Since our return from the Soviet Union. we have awaited the reply from the Soviet Union which would indicate a relaxation of internal human rights policies. We are hopeful that we will receive a statement from the Soviets within the next week or so. But actions speak far louder than words. Once again. I call upon Soviet officials to abide by the words of their own laws and the international agreements they have willingly signed. End the unjust and unconscionable persecution of Jews and other religious. ethnic. and cultural minorities. Allow those who wish to rejoin members of their family outside the Soviet Union or to practice their religion freely to emigrate.e
