Dear Constituent,
As many of you know, I have recently returned from an eight day fact finding trip from Iraq, Afghanistan, and Jordan. My trip to Iraq has reinforced a conclusion I've come to over many months. The administration's current policy in Iraq is not working. Because of the failures in planning and leadership over the past two years, our options are more limited than they once were. But there is light at the end of the tunnel if we change our approach to this war.
I have a plan that would bring all but a small and mobile unit of our forces home by the summer of 2006. Tonight, I have been invited to appear on ABC's Nightline at 11:30 PM (EST) - on Channel 5 in Boston - to participate in a town hall discussion moderated by Ted Koppel and featuring American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research Resident Fellow Richard Perle and Ambassador Joe Wilson. I am looking forward to participating in this discussion of the current situation in Iraq and my plan to bring our troops home.
Sincerely,
Marty Meehan
