The Soviet Union has a long history of antiSemitism. For decades Soviet Jews have been wrongfully arrested. denied employment. and harassed. Although recent events have loosened the restrictions on Immigration. many hardships continue to face the Jewish community still residing In the Soviet Union. Thousands of Soviet Jews wish to start new lives with peace and freedom In Israel. The United States has an opportunity to assist this cause of liberty simply by guaranteeing commercial loans for Israel to absorb these refugees. Mr. Speaker. let us remember those who sacrificed so much at Babi Yar by giving their survivors and descendants the gift of freedom.
