Subject: Written comment from Assemblymember Wicks in Support of Proclamation in Support of Human Rights in Iran
Hi there,
I’d like to share the following message from Assemblymember Wicks in support of the Proclamation in Support of Human Rights in Iran to be read during the city council meeting on 11/21. Please let me know if you need anything else.
Thank you!
“I am deeply concerned about the Iranian government’s increasing violence on peaceful protestors, in an uprising led by women who are demanding their equal rights and basic human dignity. I stand with the women of Iran in their fight for freedom over their own bodies, as well as the right for Iranian citizens to protest injustice without encountering further threats or abuses to their safety and inalienable human rights.”
Best,
Ilaf
