The clock is ticking for Edward Snowden

Edward Snowden risked everything to expose illegal mass surveillance. Now he needs our help. Click here to join our urgent last-ditch campaign to #PardonSnowden!

Now, he needs our help. The incoming head of the CIA has repeatedly called for Snowden to be executed as a traitor. [2] His future is uncertain, and he’s running out of time.

With less than two weeks left to secure a pardon for Edward Snowden, we’re unveiling a “secret weapon” online tool to raise awareness and get more people than ever before taking action, while there’s still time.

Click here to join our urgent last-ditch campaign to pardon Edward Snowden!

Here’s how it works: if you’re on Twitter, you can sign up with just two clicks to automatically tweet a #PardonSnowden message to the President every day until he leaves office, along with simple ways for your followers to take action.

If we get enough people doing it, we’ll be able to make urgent actions to support Snowden go viral and reach huge numbers of people at crucial moments.

Bonus: recent studies show that decision-makers are extra sensitive to activity on Twitter, as compared to emails, petitions, or phone calls. [3]

(Pro tip: If you have multiple accounts, you can sign them all up to make the storm even louder!)

Whether or not we can secure a pardon for Edward Snowden before President Obama leaves office, it’s critical that we build a powerful online movement right now that can work together to sound the alarm when free speech and human rights are threatened.

By mounting a strong final stand demanding a pardon for Snowden, we’re laying the groundwork to keep the pressure on future presidents to protect whistleblowers, rather than persecuting them.

Please sign up and tell all your friends. Here’s the link: TweetForSnowden.com

Thanks for all that you do,
