Instructions
- Look up your representatives’ phone numbers using https://www.govtrack.us/
- Use the lookup at “Find your representative and senators in the U.S. Congress.”
- Call each number and use the following script:
Hello,
[First line to identify yourself, that you are a constituent, and if applicable, your military background]
I am calling to respectfully urge you to help secure the immediate release of U.S. Marine veteran Christopher Ahn, and stop the U.S. efforts against human rights activist Adrian Hong.
U.S. Marine veteran Christopher Ahn has been unfairly imprisoned by the U.S. government at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Los Angeles for possible extradition to Spain since April 18, 2019. Additionally, prominent human rights activist Adrian Hong and his colleagues are being hunted by the U.S. Marshals on the orders of a foreign dictator: North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
These men are being pursued solely based on dubious claims and hearsay from North Koreans of the Madrid embassy. If extradited to Spain, they will be easy targets for a North Korean dictator who does not hesitate to assassinate his enemies and their families abroad.
This is immoral, an insult to civic minded citizens and our troops, and a waste of taxpayer dollars.
The President, Secretary of State, and Attorney General have the discretion to deny extradition for these men, who have never committed any crime. Our leaders cannot work at the behest of foreign dictators in imprisoning and shipping off our fellow Americans into the hands of a tyrant!
Can I count on [representative’s name]’s support?
If yes:
Great! I am glad I can count on you as a leader. Thank you for your time.
If no:
I’m deeply disappointed to hear we cannot count on [representative’s name] to uphold American values. As is my democratic right, I will ensure your response is publicly disseminated.
