2 Weeks Left: Help us Convince President Obama to Exonerate Ethel

Around the December holidays, the campaign to exonerate my grandmother, Ethel Rosenberg, got a huge boost:

  • Seton Hall School of Law Center for Policy and Research released a scathing, 26-page report detailing three years of scholarly research, that concludes that the U.S. Government took Ethel Rosenberg as a "hostage" simply in order to obtain leverage against her husband Julius, and that the government's case against Ethel was "nonexistent." There's a link to the Seton Hall report here.
  • NPR's Morning Edition, New York Daily News, Democracy Now!, and even Fox News reported on the stunning conclusions of this independent report, which wholly supports my family's call to President Obama to exonerate Ethel. You can read highlights of press coverage here.

Will you help keep up the pressure by sending a message to President Obama today, asking him to review the Seton Hall Report (received by the White House last week), and exonerate Ethel before he leaves office?

Please send an email to the President by clicking here or a Facebook Messenger message here.

Here’s suggested language:

Dear Mr. President:

A huge body of evidence including the Seton Hall School of Law report received by the White House on December 30th, shows Ethel Rosenberg was not a spy and our government knew that but executed her anyway. I'm one of nearly 50,000 people, including former Massachusetts Governor Michael Dukakis, and U.S. Congressman Jim McGovern, who want you to act on the request from Ethel Rosenberg's sons Michael and Robert Meeropol, and exonerate her before you leave office.

Thank you so much for your effort on behalf of this campaign.

P.S. The White House Comment Line (202-456-1111) has been closed for the duration of this administration but it's not too late to email or message President Obama.
