The Daily Bruin

Thanks to all who participated in the advocacy week for the Morong 43 last week. We gained nearly 200 signatures for our petition letters, which were faxed and mailed out early Monday morning.

Please continue to pray for these 43 prisoners as they enter their fourth day of a hunger strike. The prisoners, their families and friends are calling for their release by Dec. 10, which is deemed International Human Rights Day.

For further updates, please click here to read a recent article. The Morong 43 have now been detained for 305 days. Please continue to pray and spread awareness about this injustice.

Thank you,
Melanie Newell (Center for Peace and Justice)
