Mention of the Day (MOTD)
Jan 21, 2025

We are deeply disappointed in President Biden’s failure to exonerate Ethel Rosenberg. This is both a personal disappointment to my family and a political one. Despite overwhelming evidence that Ethel was not a spy and the government knew this before convicting and executing her, President Biden did not have the courage to admit our government’s wrongful actions and apologize.

Despite Biden’s failure, we are very grateful for the support of thousands of people who joined with us to share the new information, signed the petition, and sent letters of support to the Pardon Office. We are particularly grateful to Congressman Jim McGovern and Isabella Edo for their support and advocacy. With their help, and your help, we have been successful in correcting the historical record.

One bright spot on January 20 was the long-overdue return of Leonard Peltier to his family and community. Leonard is an RFC Advisory Board member and several generations of his family have received RFC grants. We’re so grateful that he’s going home.

We’re not finished with this fight; stay tuned for additional updates. In the meantime, thank you for standing in solidarity with the RFC and my family.

Sincerely,

Jennifer Meeropol
RFC Executive Director and granddaughter of Ethel and Julius Rosenberg
