ANCIENT ORDER OF HIBERNIANS
BREHON LAW SOCIETY
IRISH AMERICAN UNITY CONFERENCE
TO: All Concerned and Interested Individuals
FROM: Brendan Moore (AOH President); Thomas J Burke (IAUC President)
Robert Dunne (Brehon Law Society President)
RE: Advocate ending A. G. Holder enforcement of British subpoena of Boston College Irish
records
DATE: March 4, 2013
The struggle against the British misuse of the U. S. Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty (MLAT) is coming to a close. We need you now more than ever to stand up to this injustice. If we don’t win the legal battle or this political battle, America’slaws will have been ignored and citizens will be threatened. The next, and possibly last, legal hurdle will be the acceptance or rejectionof the Writ of Certiorari by the Supreme Court as early as April. We now need a full court press on A. G. Holder, Sec. of State Kerry and Senator Menendez .
PLEASE MAKE PHONE CALLS TO ALL OF THE MEMBERS OF CONGRESS OVER THE NEXT TWO WEEKS UNTIL YOU GET THE LETTER FROM THEM OR THEY DECLINE TO DO SO. CALLS TO SECRETARY KERRY SHOULD REMIND HIM OF LETTER TO CLINTON OBJECTING TO THIS. CALLS TO A. G. HOLDER SHOULD URGE REJECTION OF THE SUBPOENA ENFORCEMENT (SEE 10 Reasons etc).
Phone calls are mandatory to reflect a seriousness of purpose and to identify a contact and e-mail. These leaders were selected not because of a constituency but because of their status as members of Senate Foreign Relations, House Foreign Affairs or Irish-American leaders. All of them have received at least three letters and numerous commentary from us. If you know of a constituent who would also make a phone call that is helpful but it is not necessary. We are making this appeal for their action as members making national policy .
Please remember this is an American issue. The British are corrupting American laws for a political purpose in an attempt to undermine the Irish peace process. The British deceived American officials over this subpoena and over their commitment to the Belfast Agreement. The British would have American’s betray American values of truth and justice to serve their own selfish, arrogant and sinister purposes. Don’t let them get away with it.
If you need anything, please let us know. Action is needed now. For info contact: saoirse64@hotmail.com
