BREAKING NEWS: Major New “End the War” Bill Introduced
Yesterday, Reps. Lynn Woolsey, Barbara Lee and Maxine Waters introduced H.R. 508: The Bring the Troops Home and Iraq Sovereignty Restoration Act, taking up the President’s challenge to come up with a plan for Iraq. Thirteen additional members have already signed on as co-sponsors. The bill would bring our troops home in six months.



It’s up to PDA activists to spread the word – to friends, relatives, co-workers, other activists…and to media of every type, including independent blogs and websites. H. R 508 is a concrete plan – not just a symbolic, non-binding resolution – that progressives and Democrats can rally around.

1. Well, Pelosi will kill it anyway
She'll sit on it and make sure it never passes the House. She wants to be President next so that she can get credit for ending the war.

:sarcasm:

16. I love everything about this bill
The bill also calls for US contractors out of Iraq, and for Iraqi control of their oil.


k&r! :bounce: :kick:

17. Pass the bill and Bring them home. Bring the home.
I emailed Pelosi asking her to bring them home. I hope she realizes this is the most important decision she will have to make.
