President. as the Senate surges through its busiest time of the year. I would like to remind everyone of the importance of human rights. There are thousands of Soviet citizens being denied emigration rights and family reunification rights who are forced to live as outcasts in a society which does not want them. but will not allow them to leave. I would like to make a special plea for my two very close friends. Naum and Inna Meiman. They are an elderly couple cut off from society in the Soviet Union. Their emigration requests have consistently been rejected. Inna is dying of cancer. After removing four malignant tumors from Innas neck. the Soviet doctors insist that there is nothing more they can do for the fifth tumor. The Soviets are aware of experimental treatment available in the West. but they refuse to permit the Meimans to emigrate. I strongly urge the Soviet Union to allow the Meimans to emigrate to Israel.*
