URGENT ACTION NEEDED!

Yesterday, the U.S. Senate passed the Matthew Shepard Hate Crimes Prevention Act (S.909).  But, the victory was tarnished when an unnecessary and poisonous death penalty amendment designed to hamper this landmark legislation was added onto the Senate version of the bill.

We urge Members of Congress to recognize this egregious effort to dismantle the Hate Crimes Prevention Act for what it is, and remove the death penalty amendment from the bill when it goes to conference.

The sponsors of the bill and the more than 300 civil rights, human rights, religious, and law enforcement organizations that support the strengthening of hate crimes legislation - strongly opposed this amendment. 

Take Action:

Please contact your members of congress (House and Senate) to urge them to adopt the House version of the bill (H.R. 1913) which contains no death penalty provisions.

You can reach the U.S. Capitol switchboard at 202-224-3121 and ask for your Senator's or Representative's office.  

To look up your representatives visit:  http://www.congress.org/congressorg/directory/congdir.tt

AFTER YOU CALL, please forward this message to your friends and family and ask them to call.

Please also send an e-mail to each of your two Senators and your Representative.

Thank you for your immediate action.

Urgent Action Needed
Please take 30 seconds to email the Sacramento Bee!

In the last week, the Sacramento Bee has published several op-eds on the death penalty, multiple news stories, and their most compelling editorial to date on the issue.

They have now called for submissions on the death penalty for next week's forum. It is very important we seize this opportunity to submit as many anti-death penalty letters as possible. Letters should be short and simple - no more than 300 words! Even letters that include nothing more than the statement, "I am opposed to the death penalty." will be helpful!

The Sacramento Bee posed this question: Should California continue to impose the death penalty for the most serious crimes?

E-mail your answers to forum@sacbee.com and include your name, phone number, and address (your phone number and address will not be published, but will be used to confirm that you are a real person.).

Please take just 30 seconds to send a letter! Thank you!

voluteering for the san jose event was a really great time. The collaboration of NCADP and DPF really came together. Mike Ferrell's speech was so close to my heart that i could not help from breaking down. I wish more people understood the mission of the cause, and the kind of people you might meet on this road to abolish the death penalty.

Death Penalty Awareness Week
February 25-29, 2008

This is an annual event with participation from CEDP chapters across the US. The Austin CEDP will be organizing a week of activities including:

A People’s Tribunal Against the Death Penalty
Tuesday, February 26 at 12 PM
UT Campus, West Mall Steps
We will present strong evidence against the continued use of the death penalty. Our verdict: the death penalty is dead wrong!

Is the Death Penalty on the Way Out?
A CEDP Presentation
Wednesday, February 27 at 7 PM
At UT, NOA Room 1.116.
From the Supreme Court moratorium due to a case about lethal injection, high profile cases like that of Kenneth Foster, Jr. in Texas, to abolition of the death penalty in New Jersey, support for the death penalty continues to slowly decline. Join the CEDP for a presentation that will describe these recent developments, as well as look at the CEDP's role in the struggle to end the death penalty.

Displays and tables on the West Mall Wed. the 27 in the afternoon, and at Wheatsville Co-Op on Friday early evening.

Hey mate,
Thanks for adding me to your group. Whilst I am happy that Australia hasn't used the death penalty since 1966, your country sadly seems to be using it more and more - even bringing it back in your state - very, very sad.

Take care,

Andrew
