Another case that has been of great concern to me and to many of my colleagues in both Houses of Congress is that of Abe Stolar and his family. Abe Stolar is an American citizen. He and his wife Gita and son Michael have been trying to emigrate to Israel for over a decade. Earlier this year. when it looked as if the Stolars might finally be permitted to leave the Soviet Union. they were prevented from doing so by the Soviet Governments refusal to grant an exit visa to Michaels wife. Julia. Now it appears that the Soviets have agreed to allow all four members of the family to receive exit visas. For those of us in this Chamber who have worked on the Stolars behalf. this is most gratifying news. We remember the past disappointments the Stolars faced after having their hopes raised. and we will rejoice with them when they finally return home.
