Rally For 2833

Rallies @ Sen. Barbara Boxer's Office in LA & San Francisco Calling for Votes on Vietnam Human Rights Act HR 2833

On September 6, 2001, the House of Representatives of the United States passed Vietnam Human Rights Act HR 2833 with a vote of 410/1. Yet, Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) and other pro-VC Senators have been blocking this Human Rights Act from going to the senate floor for a fair debate and vote. In addition, Senator Barbara Boxer (D-CA) has received over 12,000 petitions asking for her intervention and vote, however she has been silent and refused to respond to her constituents petitions. HR 2833 was introduced to promote freedom and democracy in Vietnam and save American taxpayer's money.

In response to Sen. Boxer and Sen. Kerry, the Committee To Support Vietnam Human Rights Act HR 2833 and other Human Rights organizations/communities will conduct 2 rallies at Senator Barbara Boxer's Offices in Los Angeles and San Francisco to urge her and Sen. Kerry to allow the Vietnam Human Rights Act to go to the senate floor for a fair debate and vote. The rally coordinators invite all concerned people for the issues of human rights, religious freedom and saving American taxpayers money to participate these 2 rallies as follows:
