[LETTER] United States Senator Robert Menendez, D-New Jersey, released a letter today sent to the Bolivian President, Evo Morales. In the letter, the Senator expressed his profound concern about the treatment of Jacob Ostreicher, the American citizen held in the Palmasola prison for nearly a year, with no charges against him.
Menendez, as the Chairman of the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Subcommittee on Western Hemisphere Affairs, notes that the Bolivian Government’s international reputation has suffered a great deal already from this injustice, and requests that a fair and open trial be granted immediately.

Thank you for the continuous coverage.
Even though this is a special thing Senator Menendez did, we still have to make sure for the sake of the country, we elect Joe Kyrillos to U.S. Senate this November. He is someone who has proved to create jobs and has the ability to reach over the aisle when necessary!
