We need many powerful voices to help! Reality Winner was denied Compassionate Release by the District Judge who denied a bail & sentenced her. Her fate now lies with the 11th Circuit Court stonewalling her Appeal until November. Reality needs home confinement. Powerful voices?

Reality Winner: 5 years for notifying journalists to a Russian attempt to hack voting software vendors during the 2016 election.

Joe needs to clear her name as soon as he takes office, she is a patriot.
