Please Thank Rep. Smith for his speech at the Save Darfur Rally!

Dear Amnesty Activists,

As you know, Save Darfur rallies took place around the world today. I was fortunate enough to attend the demonstration in Central Park.

The people of New Jersey were represented by Congressman Christopher Smith, who gave a powerful speech calling on governments around the world—including ours, of course—to put pressure on Sudan to stop the violence and accept UN peacekeepers. Smith will also be holding a hearing about the crisis in Darfur on Capitol Hill this Wednesday. As the Legislative Coordinator for our state, I encourage you to contact his office to express our gratitude for his leadership. His DC office is at (202) 224- 225-3765. You can reach his district offices at (609) 585-7878 or (732) 350-2300.

It would also be great if you could publicly thank Smith by writing a letter to the editor!

Thanks,
Larry Ladutke
NJ Legislative Coordinator
