Tell Congress To Halt Afghan War Funding

[CodeManBob]

Dear Activist,

The majority of Americans want the war in Afghanistan ended.
President Obama promised a "significant" withdrawal this July. But
what he announced on Wednesday amounted to withdrawing about 1 percent
of U.S. personnel in July (10,000 withdrawn over six months from a
total of 200,000 troops and contractors). A White House spokesperson
told a conference call of reporters on Wednesday that public opinion
plays no role in such decisions.

ASK CONGRESS TO PLAY A ROLE

Can public opinion play any role in Congressional decisions? Obama
cannot keep so many troops in Afghanistan so long if Congress refuses
to pay for it. In recent weeks, the House has twice passed measures
barring the use of funds for U.S. warmaking in Libya. Now before both
houses is the 2012 "Defense Appropriations" bill which would dump over
$100 billion into wars including Afghanistan.

Enough is enough, and Obama's "drawdown" is not enough!

ASK CONGRESS TO DENY WAR FUNDING

Sincerely,
Norman, David, Aimee
