To all A3 supporters, please pick up the telephone and make 2 calls now.

Governor Bobby Jindal will be in London on Monday speaking at the House of Commons about democracy and human rights whilst the state of Louisiana impedes justice for Albert.

1. Damien Collins MP 020 7219 7072 and 01303 253524 (and email damian.collins.mp|AT|parliament.ukEmail address)

2. David Rutter +44 (0)20 7340 4520 or +44 (0)798 646 0557 for out-of-office hours (email david.rutter|AT|henryjacksonsociety.orgEmail address)
