I am sure that my colleagues can sympathize with Tatianas struggle to see her husband and the persecution that the Zunshines have been forced to suffer. It is an outrage that this innocent family. who simply desire to practice their religion in Israel. have become victims of the tyranny of Soviet authorities. Unfortunately. the Zunshine family is only one of thousands who are denied permission to emigrate and are subject to great harassment. We must not forget the Zunshines and the injustice suffered by other Soviet refuseniks. Their situation emphasizes the need for congressional activity. such as the Congressional Human Rights Caucus and International Parliamentary Group for Human Rights in the Soviet Union. to focus attention on abuses practiced by the Soviet Government.
