Congressman Rush Holt (NJ12) has agreed to sign a letter to Secretary of State Rice regarding the reported death in prison of Eritrean journalist Fessahaye Yohannes.
As you may know, Yohannes has been one of Amnesty’s special focus cases for several years. His reported death is made even worse by the fact that many of his colleagues remain in prison. Amnesty hopes that the pressure generated by this letter will help gain their safe release. We therefore greatly appreciate Congressman Holt’s decision and call upon the rest of New Jersey’s House delegation to contact Representative Mark Udall’s office in order to sign on.
