"A #Rohingya woman told me the ghastly story about how the Myanmar military killed her husband & baby son right in front of her.

The Myanmar military has burned hundreds of villages to the ground and there are countless reports of rape, starvation, and mass killings. America cannot ignore it.

First, we must demand full access by the official UN fact-finding mission, NGOs, and the press to North Rakhine to verify the devastation & discourage even more exploitation.

Second, we must require that those in the Myanmar military responsible for crimes against humanity be held personally accountable in an international tribunal.

Third, if any Rohingya choose to return to Myanmar, the process of repatriation must be monitored by the United Nations High Commission for Refugees.

Fourth, the Rohingya prison camps in Myanmar must be closed and all Rohingya must be free to travel, work, send their kids to school, access to health care, and gain citizenship."
