Senators Mark Udall (CO), Marco Rubio (FL) and Dianne Feinstein (CA) have circulated a “Dear Colleague” letter asking their fellow senators to sign their letter.
Please contact your senators to urge them to sign the Udall-Rubio-Feinstein letter on Tibet.
Note that we have a quick turnaround, as the deadline is April 8 for senators’ signatures, so that it gets to Secretary Kerry before he departs for his trip.
