In fact. the purpose is to keep this issue in the forefront of our attention and concern. yours and mine and the people who can make a difference. the people of the United States. The plight of Soviet Jewry is not new. The treatment of Soviet Jews has gotten worse. not better. since 1979. when 50.000 refuseniks were allowed to emigrate to Israel. Horrifying reports of refuseniks being beaten. arrested. beaten again. denied medical treatment. visits from loved ones. food and clothing. continue to mount daily on my desk. and your desks as well. Although Secretary Gorbachev has conveniently allowed a few well known refuseniks to leave the Soviet Union. we know that they are just pawns in the media propaganda game. an empty attempt to demonstrate to the West that the Soviets are changing their hard approach to human rights.
