Year-End Petition to Free the Cuban Five

Freeing the Cuban 5 is an important matter for working people around the world. You can take a small action to bring the issue of freedom for these five heroic men to the desk of President Obama. It may be a frustrating and complicated process to sign this petition, BUT remember the 14 years of unjust imprisonment working into the 15th.

There may be a little opening at this moment. It can’t hurt; it may help. Let’s do it!

The petition asks the White House “to open an honest dialog with the Cuban government to secure the release of American Operative Alan Gross.” The message reads:

WE PETITION THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION TO: Open an honest dialog with the Cuba government to secure the release of American operative Alan Gross
