Leonard Peltier

I signed petitions to free Leonard Peltier at least 30 years ago.  Peltier was an American Indian Movement activist who was accused of killing two FBI agents, although the evidence was always rather sketchy.  Peltier, who was born in 1944, has been in poor health for years, and had attracted international support for his pardon.  


Biden competed Peltier’s sentence to house arrest, and Peltier will be freed in February, provided he lives that long.  Thank you, President Biden.
