Steve Elliott, President

We've just gotten confirmation from Ignacio Ramos's
attorney Stephen Peters, that sentencing for the two
U.S. Border Patrol officers has been postponed until
September 18.
This is great news, because it allows us to continue
ratcheting up the grassroots pressure, and it is working!
Tonight, Grassfire's own Ron De Jong, will appear as a
radio guest on 610 WTVN in Columbus, Ohio to discuss
the case and the overwhelming grassroots response with
host Dirk Thompson.
++ 100,000 petitions arrive in El Paso!
Laura thanks to so many who have worked so diligently
to rally support for agents Ramos, and Compean, Grassfire
sent more than 100,000 petitions and personal comments to
attorney Stephen Peter’s office as a strong show of
grassroots support.
"I was just looking over the comments," said Peters, when
Grassfire called his office on Wednesday. "I will make them
available to my client so that he can see the support he
has from the American public."
Peters urged Grassfire to continue rallying support for
the agents over the next few weeks leading up to the new
sentencing date on September 18, saying all the attention
is very good. "Absolutely, keep them coming. I hope you
send me 100,000 more!" he said.
But that's not all.
Grassfire has already sent more than 100,000 petitions to
the White House, and our successful Faxfire delivered
thousands of faxes sent to key leaders in Congress and
the Department of Homeland Defense which no doubt rattled
some cages, as key leaders in Congress are now calling for
an investigation of the case!
Me :p
