A Bill We Can Support!

Jewish Voice For Peace has also come out showing their support for Kucinich's bill. Read below and take action:

Finally, we have a bill in the House of Representatives that we need to support. Brought by Dennis Kucinich and with 23 co-sponsors, H. Con. Res. 450 calls for an immediate cease-fire, multi-party negotiations and an international peacekeeping force. Click here to read the text of the bill.

The bill we told you about earlier, H. Res. 921 passed very quickly through the House. 410 representatives voted for the bill, only 8 against, with 10 not voting and 4 voting "present", which is essentially an abstention. You can see who voted how by clicking here.

If your representative did not vote for the bill, call her or him to thank them. AIPAC will surely be contacting them to criticize their position. They'll need our support.

Now we have a bill that we can support. It is crucial that we send a clear message to our representatives supporting this bill. Use the form below to let your representative know that you support H. Con. Res. 450.

The US Campaign to End the Occupation has designated Tuesday, July 25 a national call-in day.
