National Call-in Day to Bring the Troops Home from Iraq on Tuesday,
December 6th

Dear james,

President Bush's speech of warmed over talking points at the US Naval
Academy yesterday only solidified what we have known all along. The
President has neither a concrete plan to bring our troops home, nor new
ideas on how to rebuild Iraq. Instead, he will continue to let Americans
and Iraqis die in a war that could drag on for years. Progress is not
being made in Iraq, nor can progress be made until we bring our troops
home. (For more about the speech, click here).

It has become more apparent each day that it is up to Congress to provide
leadership and represent the majority of Americans who support troop
withdrawal. As a proud founding member of United for Peace and Justice and
Win Without War - the nation's two largest peace coalitions - Peace Action
is co-sponsoring a national call-in day to the House of Representatives.
The momentum is on our side, and now we must ask Congress to take action
and bring our troops home now!

The national call-in day will be next Tuesday, December 6th, and the phone
number to reach the Congressional switchboard is (800) 614-2803. The
message will be: "I'm calling to ask Congressperson ____ to bring our
troops home as soon as possible." Please mark this date in your calendar!
We will send a reminder next week.

We need to flood every single Congressional office with phone calls, faxes
and email messages urging an immediate end to the war! Therefore we need
as many people to participate in this call-in day as possible, to show
Congress that we mean business. Please forward this message to all of your
friends and colleagues, or use this handy tool to send a personalized
message.

Peace,

Kevin M. Martin
Executive Director
Peace Action

P.S. Rep. Nancy Pelosi, the House Minority Leader, this past Monday came
out in support of Congressman John Murtha and bringing the troops home.
Months of lobbying and action by Peace Action members helped make this
possible. Be sure to mark your calendar for the call-in day next Tuesday,
December 6th, and keep the pressure on Congress to take leadership!
