Many thousands of children have been, and continue to be, sexually abused in religious organizations. Local political leaders and prosecutors have been, and continue to be, unable and/or unwilling to curtail this. President Obama must step up and establish a national investigation commission as Australia's Prime Minister, Julia Gillard, just did effectively and decisively. Otherwise the horrors of 200 deaf boys being sexually abused allegedly by a single priest will occur again, as shown in the award winning HBO documentary, Mea Maxima Culpa. As President Obama recently said, protecting defenseless children is the first duty of government.

To:

President Obama

Investigate Child Sexual Abuse By Priests, Rabbis & Religious Leaders

Sincerely,
