For those of you who have been concerned about my dad, I am writing to update you on his condition and to ask for your help again.

After visiting my dad in prison, I have observed: They do not feed him nearly enough; he has no privacy; he works as a janitor everyday from 7-4; he is allowed few personal belongings, and; he lives with real criminals, (duh)! 

 

However, despite the negative conditions he is under, his spirit remains positive, and he retains his hope in coming justice.

 

My goal in writing this letter is to incite your frustration toward our current political state. Politics has adopted the Mafia's modus operandi. It thrives on power, money, and loyalty (i.e. being loyal to one's own, versus the client), and aborting those who refuse to comply. Contrarily, we have a judiciary committee in the House of Representatives that cares and wants partisan prosecution to end.

The conspirators, (for this is what they truly are), have been doing everything they can to crush the investigation in Congress before it reveals the truth. Our role is to petition these representatives to
persevere and fight for justice.

"Human progress is neither automatic nor inevitable... Every step toward the goal of justice requires sacrifice, suffering, and struggle; the tireless exertions and passionate concern of dedicated individuals."  - Martin Luther King, Jr.

Having my dad in prison has sharply awakened me to the many brutalities alive in this world. For years I tried to hide from politics and salvage my naivety. This was a futile attempt. Hiding from and denying the injustices served to our people and the world is anything but empowering. We have the ability to face these problems and do something productive to stop them. Please join me in encouraging this committee to fight for the truth, to seek justice with all its power, and to rekindle the hope that we ought to have in our government.

With all my heart I thank you for your incredible help, prayers, and love.

"Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. "  - MLK Jr.

SPECIFICS ON LETTER WRITING

Your letter may be as short or long as you like. My advice is to shoot for one or two strong paragraphs. Don't worry about making each letter personal, just send the same letter to each
representative.

 

Keep in mind, they want to know why the issue is important to you. A few examples may be: I knew Don Siegelman as an honorable man. I believe our justice system has been corrupted, and someone needs to hold this administration accountable; or, I'm friends with the Siegelmans so I feel inclined to write. 

 

Speak from the heart. We are working for the betterment of all, not the punishment of a few, so keep your letters positive!

 

If you don't want to send a letter to each representative, then I suggest at least mailing to the first four listed. You also have the option of sending them emails on their personal websites. 

 

Thank you again for everything you have done and are doing to help!
