Mr. Speaker. in 1978. Soviet refusenik Ida Nudel hung a banner from her window which read. "KGB Give Me My Visa." Nearly 10 years later. I am so very pleased to note that her request has finally come true. Based on a report I received from the National Conference on Soviet Jewry on Friday. Ida Nudel has been informed by Soviet authorities that her application for an exit visa has been approved and she will be allowed to join her sister in Israel once the paperwork is processed in the next couple of weeks. At long last. Ida Nudel. the "Guardian Angel" of Soviet refuseniks. will finally have the freedom she has sought for 16 long. excruciating years.
