Tell Sweden: Promise No US Extradition of Assange!

Share this action on Twitter Share

Many are claiming that Julian Assange faces no danger of being extradited from Sweden to the US if handed over to Swedish authorities. But recent comments by US officials, including the US Justice Department and California Senator Dianne Feinstein, reaffirm US intentions to try to prosecute Assange under the Espionage Act.

Join us in urging the Swedish authorities to pledge not to extradite Julian to the US by signing our petition below; then forward the petition to @Sweden and @CarlBildt so we can generate discussion in Sweden about the danger of extradition to the US.

**Note to those outside the US and Canada: The only required fields in this form are your first and last name, email, and country. You can leave the state field blank.**

I urge the Swedish authorities to promise that they will not extradite Julian Assange to the United States to face charges under the Espionage Act of 1917 for his role in publishing U.S. diplomatic cables or other U.S. documents.
