Burmese Freedom and Democracy Act
Edith Mirante
202-224-3753 to ask him to co-sponsor the renewal of the Burmese
Freedom & Democracy Act.
From Jeremy Woodrum, U.S. Campaign for Burma:
Can you call the staff member, responsible for foreign affairs in
Wyden's office and ask them to co-sponsor the Burmese Freedom and
Democracy Act?
In Wyden's office, you can contact either Joel Shapiro or Ben Widness
at (202) 224-5244.
The best time to call is between 9:30am and 5pm, Eastern Time (Monday
through Friday)
The good news is, Senator Wyden has co-sponsored this before, so we
are really hopeful that he will do so again (be sure to mention this
when you call). Your call today may actually tip the balance!
Here is a link to detailed and simple instructions about the Act, and
also exactly how to call/what to say: http://uscampaignforbuma.org/humanrights
After you call, let me know how it went. Email me at jer...@uscampaignforburma.org
