We must continue to insist that human rights be in the forefront of United States relations. and we must continue to pressure the Soviet leadership at every opportunity. Mr. Speaker. President Reagan will soon meet the General Secretary face to face. Although we all support the efforts to reduce and eventually eliminate nuclear weapons from the face of the world. our Nations moral commitment to individual freedom and human rights must never waver. especially in the rarified air of a summit meeting. President Reagan must get results from General Secretary Gorbachev on the issueof Jewish emigration from the Soviet Union. and he ought to tell the General Secretary in no uncertain terms: "Next year in Jerusalem."
