Take action!We, the undersigned, urge Texan authorities to free the innocent women, children, and other members of the Fundamentalist LDS Church who are currently being detained. We demand that the Constitutional rights of the innocent be preserved, and that due process be served. As individuals are innocent until proven guilty, we call upon the Texas Governor to intervene in this matter and allow the women and children to return to their homes peacefully. We also demand an apology, most especially from the Texas CPS, for the heinous acts of aggression displayed in these recent events.

We, who have observed the media reports and witnessed the many ways in which the rights of these citizens have been abused, urge those in authority to use their lawful power to protect such people from broad, intrusive actions. We condemn the broad authority give to the law enforcement officers to enter into and search any building in the YFZ community. We condemn the power granted to detain and interrogate hundreds of women and children.
As individuals are innocent until proven guilty, we call upon the Texas Governor to intervene in this matter and allow the women and children to return to their homes peacefully. We also demand an apology be given to the FLDS, most especially from the Texas CPS, for the heinous acts of aggression displayed in these recent events.
