Take Immediate action at the international level to end the humanitarian crisis in Syria.

Created by A.B. on January 20, 2013

This petition calls for the President to take official action toward ending the humanitarian crisis in Syria. We, as a nation,must push for immediate action to send aid to civilians and support the recognized opposition to a government that is murdering its own civilians. This conflict has global social and economic consequences. We call on our elected representative to make our voices heard on this issue in the international community. “According to UN estimates, there are 4 million people in the country in need assistance…In addition, there are 650,000 displaced people displaced…The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Navi Pillay…said she was deeply concerned by the number of deaths, which have now reached at least 60,000, and the number of human rights violations…" -UN news center
