 The US House of Representatives has passed an Iraq withdrawal bill calling for a phased pull-out of US troops from Iraq to be completed by April 2008. Now this same plan will go for a vote in the US Senate next week, but it faces stiff opposition especially from SC Senators Lindsey Graham and Jim Demint. Its time to put the pressure on them to compromise and bring our troops home from Iraq.
CONTACT SENATORS GRAHAM AND DEMINT!
Call Senator Lindsey Graham (SC-R) at (202) 224-5972
Call Senator Jim Demint (SC-R) at (202) 224-6121
Also:
*Plan to meet with your Congressmen during August recess.
*Mark MON Sept 17th Statewide Day of Action to Bring Our Troops Home from Iraq on your calendar!
