Million Voices for Iran Campaign

One Million Voices Campaign

This new campaign, One Million Voices, is a complement to this remarkable initiative and seeks to raise one million voices for human rights in Iran. The world’s attention was focused on the millions who peacefully protested in the wake of the fraudulent June 12, 2009 presidential elections and the subsequent crackdown on students, women, religious and ethnic minorities, and those with any political leanings contrary to the hard-line government.

We seek to collect one million signatures on a petition to demand global action against human rights violations in Iran.

This petition calls for European and other governments to target individual officials of the Islamic Republic of Iran by banning their travel to and freezing all assets held in their respective countries, specifically in protest of their documented human rights abuses as originally issued by the United States of America. Additionally, it demands the release of all political prisoners, who have been arbitrarily detained by the Iranian Regime in breach of their basic rights.

Finally, it calls on all official legislative bodies to immediately begin proceedings to charge the Iranian Regime with their documented human rights violations in an international court.

We echo the demands of those in Iran working tirelessly for civil and political rights.
