On June 21, Clifton Williams is scheduled to be executed. In April 2018, a federal judge would not allow new legal counsel to step in to help Clifton Williams submit an appeal, effectively leaving him without counsel as he faces execution. Take action by writing to the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles to ask for clemency for Clifton Williams.
