One Shcharansky is still the equivalent of a Learner and a Slepak and a Pison family and a Yelkon. and 250.000 or more others that are still trapped and still have the right under international law to leave and to repatriate. I would say to the gentleman from Houston. Texas. the Soviet Government has to learn that the United States Government and this Congress expect them to abide by their formal and informal agreements under international law. That is what they are not doing. regardless of whatever celebrated cases may get out. Consider for a moment just last month. the latest emigration figures for Soviet Jews. July 1986. 31 refuseniks. 31 Jews. are allowed to leave the Soviet Union. That is the second lowest number since they started compiling those statistics.
