March 14, 2012 (Washington, DC) –   The Sikh Coalition is pleased to announce that 61 Members of the U.S. Congress have signed the letter initiated by Representative Joseph Crowley (NY) in collaboration with the Sikh Coalition urging the Justice Department and FBI to track hate crimes against Sikhs.  To the Sikh Coalition’s knowledge, there has never been a letter from Congress on a Sikh issue that has garnered this much support.

Thank you to every person who called or emailed their Member of Congress! We are doing well but we want you to do more this week. Let's see if we can get to 75 Members of Congress!
 
Again, please call or email your Member of Congress:
-- Call Your Member of Congress
-- Email Your Member of Congress

Remember that direct phone calls to your Congressional offices are most effective.  After you make a call, please send an email to the Sikh Coalition letting us know that you have done so.

Here is a list of offices that have signed the letter initiated by Rep. Joseph Crowley (NY) calling on the FBI to track hate crimes against Sikhs.  If you do not see the name of your elected representative, please make a call today.
