Hi, my name is <Name> and I live in <City, State>. I am calling to ask my representative to condemn the genocide being perpetuated against the Amhara people in Ethiopia. On June 18th, over 1,500 Amharas were massacred in the Oromia Region of Ethiopia by the Oromo Liberation Army with the support of federal and regional government officials and security forces. On July 4th, over 300 Amharas were massacred in a similar way. I would like my representative <Name of your Representative> to condemn this act of terror by the Oromo Liberation Army, Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed and Oromia Regional President Shimelis Abdisa against innocent civilians and stand with the Amhara people.
