Hi everyone,

We are so close! Florida's so-called "Timely Justice Act," which speeds up

executions, garnered national attention last week thanks to everyone who has

spoken out against it. The New York Times ran a powerful editorial urging

Governor Scott to veto the bill and the Huffington Post published my op ed,

highlighting my own story of spending 18 years on Florida's death row

fighting for my innocence.

The best part - Governor Scott is ASKING to hear from Floridians. He wants

to know how you feel about this harmful and misguided legislation!

Email Governor Scott today and let him know that the "Timely Justice Act"

will only put more innocent lives at risk.

This is personal to me. If this "Act" had been in place when I was on death

row, the state of Florida may have executed me and I wouldn't be here today

to help protect the innocent and work for a more justice society.

This is our last chance to tell Governor Scott to veto this bill, and he

wants to hear from us. He knows this is a difficult decision, let's be there

to help him make it.

Join me in emailing the Governor today!

Onward to Justice!

Juan Melendez

Exonerated from Florida's death row, after spending 18 years fighting for my

innocence
