Eritrea Letter Update--Three NJ Representatives Onboard

I have just found out that NJ Congressmen Bill Pascrell and Steven Rothman have signed the Udall-Kirk letter concerning the troubling situation in Eritrea, including the reported death of AI focus case Fessahaye Yohannes.

Congressman Rush Holt has previously agreed to sign this important initiative. Amnesty International is very grateful to all signers and hopes that this action will contribute to the safe release of Yohannes' fellow journalists who remain in prison.
