Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

Any of the witnesses can respond to my question.

As you know, a feature of our Iran Accountability Week is the Iranian political prisoner amnesty project, whereby members of Parliament take up the case and cause of an Iranian political prisoner. How can we make that political prisoner amnesty project more effective, both with respect to the prospective release of political prisoners in Iran and also in order to unmask the overall massive domestic repression in Iran?
