Nearly two weeks ago, we asked you to reach out to your respective Members of Congress and encourage them to sign a letter that would be delivered to President Obama, encouraging him to remain committed to counter-LRA operations in east Africa. We asked and you responded. Over the last two weeks we witnessed 98 Members of Congress add their names to the letter, thanks to your voices.
The letter received tremendous bi-partisan support, proving yet again that ending Joseph Kony’s 27 years of violence is something we can all agree on. For a full list or representatives that signed on, check out this blog. Be sure to call or tweet your Member of Congress if they signed on and thank them for doing so.
Thank you to everyone who tweeted, called, and mailed their Members of Congress. The outpouring of support that we received was incredible. Continue to advocate for a world with #zeroLRA, and we’ll keep you updated on the reception of the letters, once President Obama receives them.
Below is a copy of the Senate letter:
Think people should hear about this?
