US Representatives for Vacaville, CA & Crawford, TX

[paineinthearse]

The most appropriate Dem US Representatives to go to Crawford in support of Cindy would be from her home district and from Crawford.

I believe she is from Vacaville.

Who is her home district Rep (George Miller?) & who represents the Crawford area?

3. Well, we can forget Thornberry, but should we encourage Miller to go?

He has already signed John Conyers' letter to * urging him to meet Cindy.... http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x2001260

4. Are you suggesting we might want to call the Vacaville rep

and ask him to go to Crawford? I live less than an hour away from V.

5. Maybe

I've started a poll, using the info from this post.

If we do, we need to be sure it is Miller (who is in the poll) as the City appears to be split between two.

6. I called Miller's office and the lady there said Miller is Cindy's rep.

7. So, does he intend to visit and support his constituent?

Representative Miller Urges President Bush to Meet With
Gold Star Mom and Ensure Her Fair Treatment


Thursday, August 11, 2005
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Representative George Miller (D-CA), an outspoken critic of the President’s handling of the war in Iraq, today joined 37 of his House Democratic colleagues in urging the President to meet with Cindy Sheehan, whose 24-year-old son Casey was killed in Iraq last year.

Sheehan, who lives in Vacaville, California, in Miller’s congressional district, has requested the meeting with President Bush to discuss the Iraq war. While Sheehan awaits a response to her request, she is camping outside the President’s Crawford, Texas ranch, where he is vacationing during the month of August. Sheehan began her vigil on August 6 and has pledged to remain outside the ranch for the duration of the President’s vacation if necessary.

“All Cindy Sheehan wants to know is why her son had to die in Iraq,” said Miller, the chairman of the Democratic Policy Committee. “Given that there were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, a lot of Americans are asking the same question. As a mother who has lost a child, Cindy Sheehan deserves an answer to that question – a real answer, not the Administration’s boilerplate nonsense.”

Miller was among 38 members of Congress to sign a letter to the President circulated by Representative John Conyers, Jr. (D-NY), the senior Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee. The letter asks the President to agree to Sheehan’s request for a meeting, and to ensure that her rights and the rights of other protesters are respected for as long as they remain outside the ranch.

“President Bush told the country that we were sending young men and women into harm’s way because Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction that posed a grave threat to our national security. That turned out not to be true. The President owes Cindy Sheehan and all Americans an explanation,” said Miller.

Spc. Casey Sheehan was serving in Iraq with the Army’s First Battalion when he was killed in Sadr City on April 4, 2004.
