My constituent in San Francisco. Michelle Cardella. was married to Leonid Lvovitch Scheiba in 1985. Leonid has applied twice to emigrate. the second refusal coming on Dec. 8. 1986. The official reason given was that it was not in the states interest to allow Leonid to leave. He cannot apply to emigrate until June 1987. but the Soviet military is already trying to draft him. There is absolutely no reason not to allow Leonid to come and join his wife in the United States so that they can celebrate their second anniversary together. And there is no reason to prevent other divided spouses from being united.
