      The Honorable Barack Obama President of the United States of America The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20500 Via Hand-delivery Dear President Obama: We, the People of Israel, look forward hopefully and with pleasure to your visit to our country. In anticipation of this important occasion, we would like to appeal to you about a matter which is deeply troubling to every one of us. Our President, Shimon Peres, and our Prime Minister, Binyamin Netanyahu have both issued formal appeals to you on behalf of the People of Israel, imploring you to release Jonathan Pollard. Jonathan Pollard has now served 28 years of a life sentence in American prisons. A few short weeks from now, he will mark his 10,000th day in jail. Both he and Israel have repeatedly expressed remorse. We have learned our lesson and have been living with the painful consequences for nearly 3 decades. We are encouraged by the appeals of Secretaries of State Kissinger and Schultz, among the many American officials calling for Jonathan Pollard's release, including many who have first-hand knowledge of the case, because of the gross disproportionality of his sentence. Jonathan's failing health lends urgency to their appeals. We, The People, simple citizens of the State of Israel, sincerely hope that you will take this opportunity to respond positively to the many requests for Jonathan Pollard's release, including those made by Prime Minister Netanyahu and President Peres on our behalf. We appeal to you as one who symbolizes the shared values of humanity, compassion and hope for a second chance, that both of our nations embrace. We implore you to commute Jonathan Pollard's sentence to time served without delay and allow him to live out his remaining days as a free man. It is our fervent hope and prayer that your upcoming trip to Israel will bring us the good news we have waited for, for so very long, and that this tragic and painful episode can finally be put to rest once and for all. With blessing,

    College students: You must complete a new FAFSA each school year. If you have completed FAFSA in the past, a lot of your info rolls over. If you have forgotten you PIN, you can "Request a Duplicate PIN" by going to www.pin.ed.gov. But, hurry! Some financial aid is first-come, first-served, so complete the FAFSA as soon as possible to maximize your financial aid: www.fafsa.gov.

    After you complete the FAFSA, you'll get a "Student Aid Report," or SAR. Your SAR summarizes the information you provided on your FAFSA. The school(s) you listed on your FAFSA will use your information to determine your eligibility for fede...ral—and possibly nonfederal—financial aid. A school may ask you to verify the accuracy of the data you provide on the FAFSA, so review your SAR carefully to make sure it's correct & complete.See More
