DESCRIPTION:Please forward widely and immediately...\n\nLYNNE STEWART IS DYING: Demand 
 Compassionate Release Now!\n\nYou must call the numbers below on Thursday, 
 May 30, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM EST \n\n• US Bureau of Prisons Director 
 Charles E. Samuels: 202-307-3198-ext. 3\n• US Attorney General Eric 
 Holder: 202-514-2001\n• President Obama: 202-456-1111\n\n\n \nSample 
 message to leave:\n\nMy name is ___________   ______________.I am from 
 _____________ (City/State). I ask that you grant Lynne Stewart 
 COMPASSIONATE RELEASE immediately. In sentencing Lynne to prison Judge John 
 Koeltl stated that attorney Stewart, who steadfastly represented poor 
 people for a lifetime, is a "credit to the legal profession and to the 
 nation."  Let the law prevail and allow Lynne, who is suffering from State 
 Four Breast Cancer, return to her family and loved ones while receiving the 
 best medical treatment available to prolong her life. Thank you for your 
 kind consideration. Let peace and justice prevail. Thank you. \n \nLetter 
 from Lynne Stewart \nDear Friends and Supporters:\n     One month ago I 
 made a request for compassionate release, which was honored by the warden 
 at Carswell Federal Medical Center.  Today the papers are still on a desk 
 in Washington, D.C. even though the terminal cancer that I have contracted 
 requires expeditious action.\n     Although I requested immediate action by 
 the Bureau of Prisons, I find it necessary to again request immediate 
 action from you, my friends, comrades, and supporters to call the three 
 numbers listed above on Thursday, May 30 and request action on my behalf.\n 
     This could result in my being able to access medical treatment at Sloan 
 Kettering so that I can face the rest of my life with dignity surrounded by 
 those I love and who love me.\n \nPlease do this.\n Yours truly,\nLynne 
 Stewart FMS CARSWELL-53504-054\n\nDear Friends of Lynne Stewart,\n\nI just 
 returned from visiting Lynne Stewart at FMC Carswell in Fort Worth, Texas 
 during the Memorial Day weekend. Lynne is dying! She had been diagnosed 
 with Stage Four Breast Cancer. But she is not without hope. Her spirits are 
 high and determination to live and fight on intact. The medical staff at 
 Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in NYC is waiting for her arrival and 
 prepared with state of the art treatments that could prolong her life and 
 maybe even save it. I have known Lynne for fifty four years. She is not one 
 to give up on any struggle for human rights and justice. This time the 
 struggle is for her life. Please make the calls and pass this on to every 
 person who cherishes humanity's struggle for a world free from injustice 
 and oppression. I have lots to say about my 12 hours with Lynne last 
 weekend, but now is the time for action. Lynne is counting on you at this 
 very special moment.\n\nIn solidarity,\n\nJeff Mackler, West Coast 
 Coordinator, Lynne Stewart Defense Committee\n510-268-9429
