How you can help
An immediate response is needed to win Róger Calero’s release on bond from an immigration prison and a halt to the government’s exclusion proceedings against him. Defenders of the Perspectiva Mundial associate editor and Militant journalist have launched a campaign to press the INS to restore his rights and his freedom.
These are some of the things you can do:
- Fax protest messages to Hipolito Acosta, District Director, Immigration and Naturalization Service, 126 Northpoint Drive, Houston, TX 77060. The fax number is: 281-774-5989. Originals of the letters should be mailed to that address. Copies should be sent to Calero’s magazine, Perspectiva Mundial, 410 West Street, New York, NY 10014. The INS district office in Houston can also be called at 281-774-4610.
- Sign and get others to help circulate petitions demanding justice for Calero. A fact sheet and petition are available on the Militant’s web site, www.themilitant.com
- Write to Róger Calero, 804B, File #A27 960 195, Houston Processing Center, 15850 Export Plaza Drive, Houston, TX 77030.
- Contributions are urgently needed to cover the substantial legal and other expenses. Checks should be written out to the Political Rights Defense Fund, P.O. Box 761, Church Street Station, New York, NY 10007. Contributions are tax-deductible.
