Repeal the Authorization to Use Force (Attack Iraq) and Withdraw Our Troops250 have signed – see totals by state and Congressional District. We are adamantly opposed to the $124 Billion Supplemental Appropriations bill that gives George Bush the money he needs to keep U.S. troops in Iraq until 2008.
The "benchmarks" that supposedly require Bush to bring troops home by August 2008 have no enforcement mechanism and will just be ignored.
The only real power Congress has to end the war is to restrict the use of all funds for a "fully-funded withdrawal" as proposed by Rep. Barbara Lee in an Amendment that she was not even allowed to introduce.
We urge all Representatives to stand with Representatives Barbara Lee, Maxine Waters, Lynn Woolsey, Lacy Clay, Raul Grijalva, Dennis Kucinich, John Lewis, and Donald Payne in their principled and courageous decision to vote NO on the Supplemental.More InformationThere is more information here:

Petition InstructionsThank you for taking a stand on this important issue! Our petition system (created by The People's Email Network) will deliver the message on the left directly to your two U.S. Senators and one Representative, and you will see their names after you press submit. We request your address so (a) we can identify your Representatives; (b) your Representatives can verify that you live in their district; (c) your Representatives can send you a reply. If you are a U.S. citizen living abroad, use your U.S. voting address (usually your last U.S. address even if you no longer get mail there.) Sections (2) and (3) are purely optional. We hope you'll use (3) to tell your friends because the more people who sign our petitions, the more Congress will listen to us. You should expect a reply from your Representatives by email or snail mail. If you do not, call their office at 202-225-3121 and ask why they have not responded to your constituent email.
