To the Editors of The Crimson:
Harvard Students for a Democratic China (HSDC) urges all Harvard students to call their congressional representatives today to request they co-sponsor House Joint Resolution 556 (HJR 556), designating May 13th, the one-year anniversary of the beginning of the hunger strike in Tiananmen Square, as a "national Day in Support of Freedom and Human Rights in China and Tibet."
The bill has passed the Senate, has about 100 co-sponsors in the House and needs to pick up 120 more in the next three days. We are tantalizingly close to success.
One call from a constituent is usually all it takes to get a congressional representative to co-sponsor a commemorative resolution. Phone calls can be made at the Undergraduate Council office.
Two hundred Harvard students calling Congress would probably make all the difference. Rick Doblin International Student Fast Day Committee Kennedy School of Government
