MELISSA ROXAS SPEAKS

LOS ANGELES - On Saturday, June 27th, 2009, Melissa Roxas made her first public appearance at a press conference held at the Echo Park United Methodist Church to let the world know the details of her abduction and torture by agents of the Philippine government and military.

To send a personal message of support to Melissa, please join the "Friends of Melissa Roxas" group on Facebook.

There are over 200 people who are still missing due to government abductions in the Philippines.

Please help put an end to these US-funded human rights violations by calling your local Senator and voicing your opposition to this inhumane misuse of our US tax dollars.

We need to stop funding the corrupt Philippine military and government!
