We need you to let them know differently!

We
need you to contact your Member of Congress (by phone or in person) and
educate their office on what really happened in Miami.
Members of Congress could be helpful in a couple of ways.
First,
Please encourage him/her to co-sign a "dear colleague" letter to Mayors
Penelas and Diaz condemning the police misconduct and demanding that
charges stemming from the FTAA Ministerial be dropped.
Second,
Please encourage him/her to call for a Congressional investigation or
hearing into the events surrounding the FTAA Ministerial.
