Jan Karski's name has been placed in nomination at the White House for the Presidential Medal of Freedom by the Jan Karski US Centennial Campaign. Over the past few days, we managed to obtain 66 signatures from Members of the House as well as letters and sign-ons from 11 US Senators in support of President Obama awarding this posthumous designation to Professor Karski.
Please take a moment to call the White House at 202.456.1111 to recommend that the President confer this long-overdue honor on Karski. If the line is busy, keep trying. If you're put on hold, please wait your turn. Make your request brief and positive, simply mentioning Karski's heroic actions in World War II and his lifelong testimony for truth as reasons for his winning this highest honor.
