TELL PRESIDENT TRUMP:
PARDON WHISTLEBLOWERS!

Tell President Trump to Pardon Brave Whistleblowers!

Whistleblowers, journalists, and other truthtellers have been essential to our democracy, exposing government abuses of our rights.

Yet, the United States government has treated brave whistleblowers, like Edward Snowden who exposed unconstitutional surveillance, as spies, charging them under the draconian Espionage Act. And now the US government has gone a step further, seeking the extradition of Australian publisher Julian Assange for publishing information about US war crimes.

Julian Assange and Daniel Hale are facing prosecution, Reality Winner and Terry Alburry are in prison, and Edward Snowden is living in exile, all for the crime of exposing official misconduct.

This cannot stand.

Please join us in a mobilization for freedom and for human rights and in defense of those who tell the truth.

Tell Trump to Pardon Brave Whistleblowers!

Presidents, in their last days in office, traditionally pardon or commute the sentences of many people. Obama, in one of his final acts, commuted the sentence of whistleblower Chelsea Manning.

We need you to call on Donald Trump to pardon all those indicted or convicted under the Espionage Act for giving information to the media about abuses of power for publishing information about those abuses!

Take action!

We just need few pieces of information to connect you with the White House:

First Name*

Last Name*

Email Address*

Address, line 1*

City*

State*

Zip Code*

Please put me on DRAD's email list (no more than one email per week)

Please note that the additional information being requested below is required by the White House webform that will submit your message to Trump.

It is beyond our control. Defending Rights & Dissent does not require or capture this information. The lack of a gender-neutral title other than "Dr." is appalling and we apologize for it.

(Note: Although the White House requires that you fill in both fields below, you do not need to provide a correct phone number, just a phone number. )

Subject: President Trump: On Bill of Rights Day, Pardon Brave Whistleblowers!

Message:

Dear President Trump,

The Espionage Act is meant to penalize spies and saboteurs, not those who alert the public about abuses of power. Yet, at the behest of the intelligence agencies, the Department of Justice, unjustly persecuted those who have alerted the people to abuses at the deepest levels of power.

We ask that you use your pardon power to end these injustices. People like Edward Snowden, who revealed illegal surveillance, Julian Assange, a journalist who published truthful information, and other whistleblowers like Terry Albury, Daniel Hale, and Reality Winner, should not be jailed or prosecuted.

Please pardon them.
