Dear Friend in St. Paul, Nov. 23 WEDNESDAY!!! while she is in town for the holidays: Ask Betty McCollum to condemn FBI raids and Grand Jury summons.
Call her office (651) 224-9191 with the following message or, if you can possibly get to her office and see someone:
Ask for her:
1. To immediately write a letter (sample attached) to U.S. Attorney Eric Holder and President Barack Obama “that condemns or expresses grave concern about the FBI raids and Grand Jury repression of anti-war and international solidarity activists, and the threat this poses to civil liberties.” (Please see attached sample letter to give the U.S. Representative.)
2. If the U.S. Representative agrees to write a letter, then ask for a Dear Colleague letter that condemns the FBI raids and Grand Jury repression.
Lastly, we want to remind you about the CSFR week of actions from Monday, November 29th thru Friday, December 3rd. Local CSFR committees and affiliates are organizing protests outside Federal Buildings and Congressional offices, promoting a call-in day that we will send out, chalking and dropping banners on campuses, and other activities.
