This observance will provide a unique opportunity for Members of Congress to sit with Jewish community leaders and participate in the telling of the story of a modem exodus from the Soviet Union which relates to the first exodus from ancient Egypt. A special program will be held and a traditional Passover meal will be served. Let us work together to reunite all of those who seek freedom. The spirit personified by the Jewish community in the Soviet Union can never be suppressed. We ask the Soviet Government to respect the dignity and human rights of all its citizens and allow those who wish to emigrate to be allowed to do so without delay. Now is the time for the Soviet Union to do what is right. for the time is always right to do right.
