Mr. Speaker. further reserving the right to object. I commend the chief sponsor of this resolution. and I will speak briefly on behalf of House Joint Resolution 190. Mr. Speaker. we have heard encouraging words and even seen some encouraging Soviet deeds in recent months. But 400.000 Soviet Jews. including Vladimir Slepak and SheinaLea Swartz. are still waiting to be free. Vladimir Slepaks only crime is that of encouraging other Soviets to fight for the right to emigrate. Mrs. Swartz is an elderly woman who is dying of cancer yet is denied permission to come to the West for treatment.
