To Head of the US State Department, Mike Pompeo:

As citizens around the world, alarmed by the story of Noura Hussein, we urge you to use your influence to intervene on her behalf. Literally one phone call could save her life and start legal reforms in Sudan. Noura is a survivor, not a criminal, and her conviction should be annulled so she can walk free.

Child bride Noura was held down by relatives and raped by her 'husband' -- a man she was forced to marry at 15.

And when he came back for more, she killed him in self defence.

Now Noura's facing execution in Sudan -- but one phone call could save her.

Last year America eased sanctions on condition that Sudan's human rights improve. Noura's case shows they haven't, and gives the US unique leverage to have her conviction dropped, and ban child marriage forever!

Just one phone call could be enough to push Sudan's president. Let’s build a giant call for US State Secretary, Mike Pompeo, to pick up the phone -- allies in Congress are ready to deliver our call to him! Sign now and pass this on!
