A concurrent resolution expressing the sense of the Congress with respect to demonstrations in Latvia commemorating Latvian Independence Day.

Expresses the sense of the Congress that before November 18, 1987, the Secretary of State should inform the Soviet Government that the United States supports the right of the Latvian people to peacefully assemble to commemorate important dates in their history and should urge the Soviet Government to: (1) allow the Latvian people to publicly commemorate November 18, the anniversary of the founding of the independent Republic of Latvia, without reprisal; (2) allow the Western media access to Riga, Latvia, to report on that day's events; (3) halt harassment of Latvian human rights groups; and (4) release all Latvian prisoners of conscience, including human rights activists Linards Grantins and Gunars Astra, before such date.

Urges the President to direct U.S. Government agencies to closely monitor the events of November 18, and to send an appropriate representative to observe that day's events.

Urges the President and the Secretary to raise the issue of human rights and self-determination in the Baltic states during the next U.S.-Soviet summit.
