Amnesty International Madison Group #139 Weekly Update - Friday, December 12, 2014

Greetings Everyone!
     Thank you to our many members who signed Write for Rights letters and online petitions. We are especially appreciative to those members who passed on this information to their organizations. Some of these letters were sent directly to Washington D.C. Others were sent to us and we will send them to Washington before the deadline. We joined thousands around the world... from Canada to Mexico, from the United Kingdom to India, from the Caribbean to Australia, from Kenya to Germany. Our voices, our signatures joined together on behalf of Jorge Lázaro Nunes dos Santos, Liu Ping, the women & girls of El Salvador, Rampyari Bai & Safreen Khan, Moses Akatugba, Murad Shtewi, Raif Badawi, Chelsea Manning, Darrell Cannon & Anthony Holmes, Hadya Pendleton, and the Disappeared Mexican students from Ayotzinapa . There is still time to add your voice. Click here for more information about 2014 Write for Rights.
