"We call for the United States government, international leaders, and the United Nations leaders and representatives to condemn and to act on the oppression of freedom of the press by Communist North Korea. We condemn North Korea's actions in sentencing U.S. reporters Euna Lee and Laura Ling to 12 years in a North Korean 'labor' camp, and we demand that the United States government, international leaders, and the United Nations take every action to gain Euna Lee's and Laura Ling's release from the North Korean 'labor' camp where they have been sentenced to be imprisoned. We view North Korea's actions against Euna Lee and Laura Ling as a gross violation of the universal human rights of liberty and freedom of the press, and we demand our national and international representatives act to gain their freedom NOW!"
