Mark sacrificed his career with the Government design firm. transferring Jobs to work on small residential and commercial projects. This change took place as Mark and his wife. Svetlana KredovaTerlitskaya prepared to apply for permission to emigrate to Israel. Now. a decade later. Mark and Svetlana are still in Moscow. their exit visas repeatedly refused. and their Jobs lost. The Congressional Call to Conscience has highlighted the plight of dozens of Soviet Jews. The Senate has been informed of countless cases of beatings. family deunification and harassment inflicted upon the Jewish population living in the Soviet Union.. Because these "refuseniks" desire to practice their faith and possibly to emigrate to Israel. they suffer greatly. Unlike Mark and Svetlana. some Soviet Jews are allowed to leave. In fact. Marks brother and Svetlanas sister were given exit visas. But the 1976 exit visa request filed by Mark on behalf of himself. Svetlana and their daughter. Olga. has again been refused.
