Dear friends, I received this upsetting email from the office of Senator Howell that I like to share with you. I will not give up and hope you don’t either. I will not give up on my goal of making Narges Mohammadi an honorary citizen of Virginia and hope you can back me up. I have 536 friends like you including 143 from Iran and I truly believe we can achieve it. All it takes is 2 things. Encourage your friends if they have yet to sign this petition to sign it and second to call her office and ask her to follow up on the demand in this petition. I encourage you to call or email her and pressure her to do this for Narges. She needs to be with her kids not in Prison….Let’s do it Senator Janet Howell (804) 698-7532 (703) 709-8283 district32@senate.virginia.gov SenHowell@gmail.com Below is the email ------------------------ Mr. Amini, Senator Howell asked me to convey to you that she chooses to follow the established policy of the Senate which is to offer a resolution only very rarely and only when it involves someone who has made a significant, direct contribution to Virginia. I'm sorry to disappoint you. Additional email exchanges will not change her position on supporting that policy. I wish you well in your effort. Karol Straub Legislative Assistant Senator Janet Howell
