Land mines are invisible and deadly. Long after a conflict is over land mines remain hidden. They do not discriminate who they kill or handicap, whether it is an animal, a farmer, a soldier or a child.
Please sign this petition and help persuade the United States government to join the 1997 Mine Ban Treaty. Let's remind our representatives what we value and continue to close the gap between our words and our actions. Let's fight for everyone's freedom; freedom from fear and freedom from physical harm.
"Dear President Obama, why wouldn't the USA want to help protect innocent people from land mines by joining the 1997 Mine Ban Treaty? "
The world looks forward to your answer.
