There is also a petition for restoring Veteran's Benefits at this site that I encourage you to read and sign. Those who serve us deserve no less than a lifetime of care, so step up and let your Representative know where your heart is.
Democratic Agenda for September 24, 2007
I follow the news carefully and I am outraged at the innumerable crimes of the Bush Administration - and the failure of Congress to stop those crimes.
As my Representative in Congress, these are the actions I want you to take this week.
1. Join the 81 Members who have signed the Progressive Caucus "Peace Pledge" to oppose any more Iraq funding except to bring our troops safely home before Bush leaves office. http://afterdowningstreet.org/peacepledge
2. Oppose amnesty and immunity for telephone companies that illegally spied on American citizens without a warrant. http://www.democrats.com/peoplesemailnetwork/114
3. Oppose Michael Mukasey for Attorney General because he (a) wants to keep Guantanamo open despite the strong objections of the world (b) allow "enhanced interrogation techniques" which is just Bushspeak for torture, an international war crime, and (c) abused material-witness laws to lock up Muslims without charges. http://thinkprogress.org/2007/09/24/mukasey-signals-support-for-torture
4. Oppose the Lieberman-Kyl-Graham-Coleman Declaration of War on Iran http://www.democrats.com/stop-the-lieberman-kyl-graham-coleman-declaration-of-war-on-iran
5. Support the Feinstein-Harkin bill to close Guantanamo.
6. Oppose Hans von Spakovsky for FEC Commissioner because of his key role in illegal voter suppression, disciminatory and illegal voter ID laws, the illegal TX redistricting engineered by Tom DeLay, and the stolen election in Florida, all documented here: http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2007/9/21/122027/759
7. Support the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP)http://www.firedoglake.com/2007/09/24/morning-cuppa-misplaced-health-priorities
8. Investigate Newsweek's report that Dick Cheney is trying to provoke a war with Iranhttp://www.firedoglake.com/2007/09/24/morning-cuppa-cheneys-war-provocations/
9. Co-sponsor H.Res. 333 to Impeach Dick Cheney for lying about Iraq http://www.democrats.com/peoplesemailnetwork/73
10. Introduce Articles of Impeachment for George Bush for at least 10 egregiously impeachable offenses:http://www.democrats.com/peoplesemailnetwork/88
