April 8, 1998

To All Friends and Supporters of Lori Berenson -- Call to Action

President Clinton will be attending a hemispheric summit conference in
Santiago, Chile, April 18 and 19. It is essential that President
Clinton stand strong for human rights, justice, and democracy, and
champion Lori's case when he encounters the Peruvian President Alberto
Fujimori.

ACTION NO. 1: Call White House Tuesday, April 14

Call the White House comment line at 202-456-1111, and press 0 to get an
operator.

A good message to leave would be:

"Lori Berenson has spent the past 29 months in a harsh Peruvian maximum
security military prison under inhumane conditions that threaten her
life. She had been sentenced to life in prison by a secret military
tribunal in violation of international law. Ms. Berenson has always
maintained her innocence but has been denied due process and a real
trial in which she could demonstrate her innocence.

When you attend the Summit of the Americas, you MUST take the
opportunity to express to President Fujimori that Ms. Berenson's
continued imprisonment without a fair trial is unacceptable. Do not by
your silence allow her to suffer any longer!"


ACTION NO. 2: Send the above message by Email to President Clinton
before Thursday, April 16.

President Clinton can be reached at the following address:
pres...@whitehouse.gov


PLEASE WIDELY DISTRIBUTE THIS CALL TO ACTION!


Rhoda and Mark Berenson
