TAW Board member, Mr. Tenzin“Tenny” Trinley just returned representing our community at the National “Tibet Lobby Day” action in Washington DC.
“As Constituents-Tibetan Americans lobbied for our Tibetan cause at Congress for 2 Days. This was one of the most empowering experiences I have had.” according to Tenny.
March 1-2, the International Campaign for Tibet is helping organize the second annual Tibet Lobby Day. This is a gathering of Tibetan-Americans and Tibet supporters from around the country who are coming to Washington, DC to meet with their senators and representatives… The purpose of Tibet Lobby Day is not only to maintain this Congressional support, but to establish Tibet as a constituent issue. Facing the well-funded lobbying might of the Chinese Embassy, it is critical for all of us to let our elected representatives know of the breadth and depth of support for the cause of Tibet (ICT). Please take urgent Action NOW! Go to our Photo gallery and Video section for details.
