Alicia Keys flirtatiously tells Paul Ryan she'll be his valentine — under one condition

Singer Alicia Keys has a very sultry Valentine's Day message for Speaker of the House Paul Ryan (R-Wis.): Support criminal justice reform.

In a short video released Thursday, Keys uses her best come-hither voice to ask Ryan to "bring justice reform to a vote so we can keep families together and reunite those that have been unjustly torn apart by excessive incarceration instead of just getting the help they needed." Ryan promised, also on Thursday, to do exactly that.

If you'd like to take Keys up on her offer of sending Ryan a valentine note of your own, you can do so here. Hopefully your email will be a little longer than Keys' card, which in the video simply reads, "Dear Paul, Alicia Keys."
