If you personally know Alex and would like to help, you can still write a character reference letter to the New York State Governor, Kathy Hochul. Explain how you know Alex and tell a story about him. You can explain why you believe his sentence is unjust or your concerns about NYS self-defense laws. You can also express your concerns about the rising movement of white supremacist groups and their presence within New York State. Explain why you support Executive Clemency efforts for Alex.

Albany County residents can also contact their NYS Senator and Assembly members.

If you feel that you have been discriminated against or had your civil rights violated by law enforcement, file a complaint with the NYS Attorney General’s office.

Please sign the petition to show your support of Alex and share his story.

Send your letters, calls, and messages to these NYS representatives.
