Mr. Speaker. I rise in support of House Joint Resolution 376 which calls upon the Soviet Government to permit those Soviets citizens with spouses in the United States to emigrate with their family members to this country. It is cruel for any government which keeps families apart. If there is truly going to be a transformation in AmericanSoviet relations the U.S.S.R. must show in this era of glasnost that it has a new understanding for human rights. Last week many of us attended a reception in the Capitol for Svetlana and Keith Braun. who were just reunited after years of waiting for the Soviet Union to grant them permission to live together in the same country.
