Speech #990214366

Mr. President. since March 6. 1986 I have been making daily statements in the CONGRESSIONAL RECORD on behalf of my friends Naum and Inna Meiman. The Meimans are Soviet Jews who have repeatedly been denied permission to emigrate to Israel. Soviet officials claim that because Naum was privy to state secrets they cannot let him leave. Naum finished his "classified" work 30 years ago. His calculations are now outdated and he has been isolated from the scientific community for years. Inna is seriously ill with cancer and desperately needs treatment only available in the West. Many people have asked why I continue using such an unorthodox method of publicity.
