27 Members of Congress ask Sec. Clinton for assessment on human rights in Honduras

June 25, 2010

On the eve of the first anniversary of the coup in Honduras, 27 Members of the U.S. House have written Secretary of State Hillary Clinton asking her to send Assistant Secretary of State Michael Posner to visit Honduras and to "make a prompt assessment of what is occurring there with regards to human and political rights."  The signers say that "without an early and accurate report [from Mr. Posner], we would be reluctant to see US support for Honduras continue without significant restrictions."

The letter is available in English and Spanish on our website.
