Petition President Bush Today!
Pardon Border Agents Ramos And Compean!

The Issue:

Read Nacho's prison letter to Grassfire

Two former U.S. Border Patrol agents -- Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean -- are serving
11- and 12-year prison terms for attempting to apprehend an illegal alien drug smuggler. The smuggler, who was transporting 743 pounds of marijuana (about $1 million worth), was given full immunity to testify against our agents, free health care, and free border crossing passes that he
used to transport more drugs into the U.S.

The only real hope to right this wrong and return these men to their families is to petition the President—urging him to pardon agents Ramos and Compean before he leaves office.

Sign the Petition
Grassfire is sending at least 417,000 citizen petitions to the Office of the Pardon Attorney urging a commutation from the President. But to reach this goal we need the help of grassroots citizens right now. Sign the petition below, and alert your friends to take action with you.

The Petition States:

To: President George W. Bush,

As a citizen of the United States I am outraged to learn that two U.S. Border Agents have been convicted, and sentenced to lengthy prison terms for doing their jobs-- pursuing illegal aliens who cross our border. I am calling on you to officially pardon these men for their actions.

I am even more outraged to learn that this illegal alien (who was attempting to smuggle about 800 pounds of marijuana into our country), was tracked down by a Department of Homeland Security Investigator and granted immunity for his testimony against these two agents!

This is a terrible injustice, and I urge you to use your considerable authority and power to pardon these two agents and right this obvious wrong!
