Unfortunately, there has been little to no progress in what some have termed “the Saffron Revolution” in Burma. The oppressive regime continues to suppress any opposition, often with violence.
Fortunately, many in the media remain focused on the vicious nature of the government.
Our allies in Asia and around the globe must continue to call for an end to the repression and recognize that the innocent Burmese people deserve to enjoy liberty, dignity and opportunity.
Watch my bipartisan video statement on Burma with Sen. Dianne Feinstein.

Many thanks to you, Senator Feinstein, and others such as Senator McCain and Representative Lantos (D-CA) for keeping this issue alive. There is a show on C-SPAN right now (I am sure will be rebroadcast) about Burma and the fight for freedom. We stood and cheered dockworkers in Gadansk during the Solidarity movement in the 1980s, so should we also support monks and others fighting for freedom in Burma. Mike Trackbacks
