The Aspen Institute of=en organizes Congressional staff delegations and we just got a call from a=Congressional office letting us know that they will be participating in a =rip to Senegal next weekend. This could be a substantial opportunity to meet with some very influential foreign po=icy Congressional staff. We have spoken to Yebbie Watkins, he is one=of the most influential staffers in Congress as he is the Chief of Staff f=r the House of Representatives Whip Congressman James Clyburn. We have briefed Yebbie on Mr. Wade'= situation and he said that he would be willing to meet with Mr. Tidiane o= another representative of Mr. Wade that you recommend. This could b= a great opportunity to get Mr. Wade's story told to some very important Congressional leaders. Furthermore Yebbie is =n leadership in the Congressional Black Caucus, as you may recall they are=a group that we identified in an earlier correspondence as both highly inf=uential and one that could potentially help us get even more attention around Mr. Wade's incarceration.&nbs=; Please let me know how we should coordinate a meetin= with someone from your team and Mr. Watkins.
