>> Dear Jenifer,
>> There are two important things we invite you to do today:
>> 1. Contact Your Representative About Protecting Consular Rights
>>
>> Contact your Representative immediately to protect your consular
>> rights and the life of Jose Medellin, a Mexican national who will
>> be executed by Texas authorities on August 5, 2008. Jose Medellin
>> and 50 other Mexican nationals were denied the right to visit with
>> a Mexican consular official while in detention in the U.S. This
>> right has been routinely denied to many detained under the Bush
>> Administration-including many of CCR's clients-and has prevented
>> foreign authorities from protecting their own citizens from the
>> Bush Administration's torture, rendition and other human rights
>> violations of non-U.S. citizens. Contact your Representative now
>> with the easy to use form on our website.
>> 2. Live Web Chat with CCR's Executive Director Vince Warren
>> (Monday, August 4th at 3PM EST)
