Sample message:
Please drop the extradition proceedings and underlying indictment against Wikileaks publisher Julian Assange. A functioning democracy
rests on freedom of the press, and your case poses a threat to press freedom throughout the country. Most recently, your key witness
admitted he fabricated accusations against Assange. You have no case, are wasting taxpayer money and pursuing the prosecution of
a journalist. Assange published evidence of U.S. war crimes in Iraq and Afghanistan, as well as evidence of torture at Guantanamo. Instead
of prosecuting the publisher who exposed such crimes, prosecute those responsible for them. Thank you.

Write the White House
Sample message:
Dear President Biden,
Please make it clear that you do not approve of prosecuting Julian Assange, a publisher who revealed evidence of US war crimes in
Iraq and Afghanistan. Denounce the Trump administration's decision to indict Assange under the Espionage Act of 1917, and underscore
the importance of a free press that can inform the public without fear of prosecution. Thank you.

Sample message:
Please write a "Member of Congress" letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland to urge him to drop extradition proceedings and the
underlying indictment against Wikileaks publisher Julian Assange. The case is a threat to freedom of the press and will have a chilling
effect on journalists who may fear prosecution if they publish evidence of US war crimes.
