Also invited is Matthew Charles, who after 22 years in prison for selling drugs, was the first prisoner to be released in January of this year as a beneficiary of the criminal reform promoted by the president.

The list goes on with the opiate addict Ashley Evans, who recently celebrated her first year of abstinence. Roy James, a lumber worker who closed his doors but who reopened as a result of the tax reform promoted by the president. Also Tom Wibberley, the father of one of the victims of the suicide attack of Al Qaeda against the destroyer USS Cole in the year 2000 in Yemen.
