Free Euna Lee & Laura Ling

Please sign this petition at CARE2 for Euna Lee and Laura Ling, two American journalists who were taken into custody on March 17th by the North Korean military. The two women were reporting on the trafficking of women along the border with China.

Euna and Laura have been charged with engaging in "hostile acts," and their trial is set for June 4, 2009, in Pyongyang.

CARE2 calls on the Government of North Korea to release Euna and Laura on humanitarian grounds saying "These women are wives, mothers, daughters, sisters; they are missed by their families and friends, who would like to see them safe and back at home."
