Dear All,
Congratulations -- You did it! Because of your phone calls, emails and letters to your Senators and Representatives, the Burmese Freedom and Democracy Act passed both Houses of Congress with more support than in any other year!
Today the Bill passed in the Senate 99-1!
A record number 68 Senators cosponsored this important piece of legislation -- and that's because of your extraordinary commitment to the struggling people of Burma and your determination to see democracy in action.
What does this victory mean for Burma? Before this legislation was introduced 7 years ago, US trade with Burma allowed American money to fund the Burmese military and its cronies. But once again, hundreds of millions of American dollars will be kept out of the hands of the military regime for another year.
Thank you for doing your part by calling or emailing your Senator and/or Representative -- you helped ensure this historic passage!
Keep up the good work, and call your Senators to help end crimes against humanity
Mike
