Dear John,

Today is #GivingTuesdayNow, a global day of unity for people around the world to come together in the face
of the COVID-19 crisis.

Your compassionate action is urgently needed, Friend—especially by the people of Tibet.

Censorship and lack of transparency are hallmarks of China’s authoritarian rule.
And as we’ve been reminded during this global pandemic, China’s lies cause
problems for the whole world. No one knows this more than the Tibetan people who have endured a now
six-decade-long occupation of Tibet.

With the support of ICT members, our community of compassion has been fighting
to expose China’s lies, pushing for independent investigations on human rights
abuses in the Land of Snows. But access to Tibet has been heavily restricted for
a very long time and in the midst of this global lockdown, the ability to know
what’s really happening in Tibet is more critical than ever.

We need to expose the truth about China’s oppression against Tibetans and stop
their secrets in Tibet. As long as China’s authoritarianism, censorship and
propaganda continue—hurting Tibet and the entire world—we can’t let them go
unopposed.

The Reciprocal Access to Tibet Act—passed through the US Congress in late 2018
with the support of ICT members—puts pressure on China to open Tibet and allow
access to the world outside its borders. The Act requires the State Department
to produce a report that targets the Chinese officials responsible for
restricting access to Tibet for American citizens, and in turn revokes their own
access to the United States. But the State Department has yet to release the report.

We need your help, John, to turn up the pressure on
China. Sign our petition to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo calling on the State
Department to release the report on Chinese officials and help bring reciprocal
access to Tibet this #GivingTuesdayNow.

Show China’s leaders that their discrimination and oppression in Tibet won’t be
tolerated—and neither will their secrets.

Thank you for signing our petition

and standing with the people of Tibet.

With gratitude,

Matteo Mecacci
President

P.S. #GivingTuesdayNow is the perfect time to put your compassion into action. Urge our leaders in
the State Department to fulfill the requirements of the
Reciprocal Access to Tibet Act and expose China’s lies.
