Dear Brian,<br>
<br>
Last Thursday, the Ecuadoran police mounted an attempt at overthrowing democratically elected President Correa. Within hours, the U.S. government issued a statement "urge[ing] all Ecuadorians to come together and to work within the framework of Ecuador's democratic institutions to reach a rapid and peaceful restoration of order." <br>
<br>
However, as you know, the U.S. continues to support the post-coup government in Honduras - despite the fact that the current president was the winner of elections hosted by an illegal coup government. Politically motivated, targeted human rights violations are occuring with large-scale impunity. Now, Representative Sam Farr (D-CA) is circulating a Dear Colleague Letter calling on the Obama Administration to <b>make financial support for the Honduran government contingent upon concrete action in halting human rights violations and holding the perpetrators accountable.</b> <a href="http://org2.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=BF3GOJ4RsBhD5jaW7atLpWW2esbqi0CV" target="_blank"><b><br>
<br>
Click here to ask your congressperson to sign on to the letter before October 7.<br>
</b></a><br>
Brian, now is the time to let the United States government know that its citizens demand consistency in our support for democracy, lawfulness and nonviolence around the world. <a href="http://org2.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=7g2va9KB/2nO2wS%2BwvfthGW2esbqi0CV" target="_blank"><b><br>

Click here to ask your congressperson to sign this important letter today! </b></a><BR>
In solidarity,<br>
