Peace Action

This week the supplemental war appropriations bill is in conference committee where timelines for withdrawal could be taken out. An even more serious concern is that congressional leaders will back down after a Bush Veto and pass a supplemental with no timelines or restrictions on the occupation of Iraq.

Call Speaker Pelosi at (202) 225-4965 and Senate Leader Reid at (202) 224-3542 NOW and tell them to stand strong on the supplemental.

Once connected, you can leave a message with a staff person or in a voice mailbox. Use the sample message below as a guide.

SAMPLE MESSAGE:

“My name is _____________ and I want to let Speaker/Leader Pelosi/Reid know that Americans want Congress to end the war in Iraq. The timelines proposed in the House and Senate supplementals don't go nearly far enough, but they are a valuable first step that shouldn't be rolled back in conference. I also want the Speaker/Leader to be firm in the face of a Presidential veto. The supplemental should not turn into a blank check for war from congressional Democrats to the President. Thank you and I look forward to hearing about the Speaker/Leader's position on this important issue.
