People in my district are haunted by the memory of what happened 50 years ago when thousands wished to escape Eastern Europe and Germany and were not let in anywhere else. Now it is happening again through the terrorism of Yasir Arafat and the compliance of the Soviet Union. We are upset. We are concerned. The Soviet Union desires new trade relations with the United States. This Congress and the Bush administration should make it very clear that enhanced trade status is completely unachievable without a clear reversal of Soviet Jewish emigration policy. To make the law more liberal and then prohibit transportation that allows the very people to get out is not going to fool this Congress or this country.
