Tell Louisiana Officials to take action to stop the injustice happening to the Jena 6.

Louisana officials are acting like they can't do anything to end the injustice occuring in Jena, Louisiana. Now is the time to call and tell them that they can---the reputation of their state is at stake.

Can you take a minute to give Michael Olivier, Secretary of the Louisiana Economic Development Office a call at 225-342-5388?

Here's a brief script you can use that speaks to his specific leadership position in the state of Louisiana (or feel free to come up with your own):

I'm calling regarding the Jena 6 case. I want to make sure that Secretary Olivier is aware that his goal of bringing business to Louisiana will suffer because of the negative image Louisiana is gaining from this case. The LaSalle Parish DA has clearly overstepped his bounds, and it's time for him to drop all charges. If Secretary Olivier wants to protect Louisiana’s business interests, he needs to speak up and make sure justice is served in this case.

Once you've called, please take a moment to let us know you called and to tell us how it went. What happened when you called?    Reached a real person or left a message.    No answer, busy signal, recorded message, etc. If you reached someone, can you summarize their response?
