    Dear Ambassador Ichiro Fujisaki,

    I recently heard about the documentary film The Cove and was alarmed to find out that more
    than 20,000 dolphins and porpoises are brutally killed each year off the coast of Japan. In
    addition, Japanese consumers are being sold dolphin meat, containing dangerously high levels of
    mercury, often labeled as whale meat.

    I ask that you urge the Japanese government to revoke permits that allow Japan's Fisheries
    Agency to continue this heinous, dangerous and illegal practice.

    I also urge American leadership to ensure that the International Whaling Commission includes
    the proper management of dolphins and porpoises and a comprehensive plan to stop the slaughter
    of dolphins in Japan.

    Your immediate action is needed.

    Sincerely,
