Emotional graduation @georgetownsfs with a call to action to free thousands of political prisoners! Like @Georgetown grad Austin Tice detained in Syria since 2012…and so many others. @freedomhouse is fighting for them! We all must speak against injustice…

Thank you @ChrisVanHollen, for your strong support of Austin and your kindness to Debra. May the day Austin can thank you himself come soon!
It’s been almost 11 years since journalist Austin Tice was abducted in Syria — and we won't rest until he’s back with his family, safe and sound. I’m working with his mother, Debra, and the State Department to ensure the United States is doing all we can to #BringAustinHome.

It’s well past time to #BringAustinHome. The journalist & veteran Marine Corps captain has been held in Syria more than 10 years. Let’s not let a day go by w/o asking the government what effort it is making to bring him home safely. @PressClubDC

Thank you, Miguel.
This is Miguel Dominguez, Director of Operations ⁦@PressClubDC⁩ and an American by choice. He is in the weather to call attention to #bringaustinhome banner on F St. When Club was closed for Covid Miguel checked every day to make sure the Austin Freedom Clock was running.

That's the kind of question we hate to ponder @mccarrennews
Club Engineer Sal Arias at #BringAustinHome banner on F St. today. He’s been w/us 28 years. Cold out there today. When a room @PressClubDC is cold, Sal fixes it. Today he asked “how cold is the room where Syria is holding Austin.” How do I answer @JakeSullivan46? FreeAustinTice
