Laying out key facts regarding the faults in his prosecution and the sheer length of his incarceration, Sen. Schatz said “He’s done his time. This is what clemency is for. This is what mercy is for.…This is exactly what this awesome Presidential power is for, to right a historic wrong.”
The Senate speech comes three days after Sen. Schatz made a post saying “Free Leonard Peltier” immediately after Hunter Biden received a pardon from his father.
With only 48 days left in President Biden’s term of office NOW is the time to Free Leonard Peltier! Leonard Peltier’s continued imprisonment is an horrific act of injustice. Former Prosecutors, elected officials, and human rights advocates have all come to the same conclusions— FREE LEONARD NOW!!
