URGENT ALERT UPDATE: Pressure for Katrina and Sarah to be allowed to see attorneys.

For their appeal to proceed, Katrina and Sarah will need the assistance of attorneys, which we have found in Israel. The attorneys need to be able to get in to see them, before their deportation is final!

Please keep the calls going today, and add this demand to your message.

Also, the appeals will cost $3000. Please contribute to this effort to challenge the exclusion of solidarity activists from Israel – you can do that at the Anti-War Committee website. (Please include a note that your contribution is for the delegation legal defense.)

Thank you!
