Past Actions

  A letter to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi

We have developed a sample letter for you to write to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
The letter is in Word format for you to download, fill out and sign.

Please DO NOT send the letters to Speaker Pelosi directly, but rather RETURN THEM TO US so we can deliver them all at one time for a bigger impact.

This sample letter contains three sections:
- one on warrantless eavesdropping on Americans,
- one on torture,
- and one on indefinite detention, which includes the President asserting power to detain indefinitely -- in essence, to "disappear" -- American citizens and others.

Feel free to include all or some of the language in this letter, from all three or from any one or two sections.
Please note that letters are more effective if they are written in your own words, so this sample letter is intended as a guide.
But if you are short on time, you are welcome to use the language included here.
In order to make a bigger impact, we will deliver them all letters together, so please send your letters to:

Or Hadash USA/ Return to Daylight
