Not One Penny More for War
Not One Penny More for War! National Call-In Day Tuesday Feb. 28 Call the Capitol Hill Switchboard on Tuesday Feb. 28th at 202-224-3121 and ask to speak to your Representative (or one of your Senators). Give them this basic message in your own words: "I strongly oppose the war in Iraq. I want all our troops brought home safely, without delay. I urge Representative X to vote against the President's $72.4 billion 'emergency' supplemental request for the war." More Info: http://www.afterdowningstreet.org/?q=node/8237
The Republicans who run Congress will include small amounts of money for all sorts of good things in the supplemental or group of supplementals to be voted on. This will provide your Representative all sorts of noble excuses for voting for a lot more money for war. Tell them this position will only be credible if they cosponsor Rep. Jim McGovern's bill, which simply ends funding for the war: http://www.afterdowningstreet.org/end

Stop Evictions of Katrina Victims
On March 15, FEMA plans to evict thousands of victims of Hurricane Katrina. Thousands have already been evicted. Trailers sit unused and unshipped to New Orleans. Our federal government is engaged in a campaign to exclude poor and black people from the new version of the city it allowed to be destroyed. On March 14, tens of thousands of Americans will skip work and march from the U.S. Capitol to the White House, and we will not leave until Bush announces a plan for housing and orders an end to evictions. Press Conference: 1:00 p.m. - 2:00 p.m., Rayburn House Office Building - Room #2237 Mardi Gras Style March for Justice: 2:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m., will start from Capitol South Metro Stop at 2:00 p.m. to the White House Rally & Protest at the White House: 3:00 p.m. - 11:59 p.m., Lafayette Square Park LEARN MORE: http://www.afterdowningstreet.org/?q=node/8221

GRANDMAS FOR IMPEACHMENT Five Grandmas in Pink Aprons Let Bush and Cheney Have It! Watch the Raging Grannies in this video from February 15, 2006, in Santa Cruz. http://www.afterdowningstreet.org/?q=node/8249
27 Congress Members for Upholding Rule of Law: NOT ENOUGH Twenty-seven support an investigation into impeachment. That is not enough. What about yours? When Richard Nixon abused power, Congress held a serious, bi-partisan investigation that resulted in articles of impeachment. Strong evidence suggests that George Bush and Dick Cheney launched an illegal war and lied to Congress, spied on Americans without court approval, leaked classified information, produced phony news reports, imprisoned without charge and tortured, targeted civilians and used illegal weapons. Ask your Congress Member to cosponsor House Resolution 635 for an investigation.
