Summary

Expresses the sense of the Congress that: (1) the people around the world desire a world free from the threat of war; (2) the President and General Secretary Gorbachev should reach an arms control agreement which significantly cuts nuclear stockpiles and halts the arms race between the United States and the Soviet Union; and (3) the Congress invites all citizens to light candles from dusk to dawn on November 19 and 20, 1985, while the President and Gorbachev meet at the summit in Geneva, Switzerland.
