Dear Friends,
Our long fight to end the President's disastrous war in Iraq has entered a critical new phase. Yesterday, House Democrats, backed by the will of the American people, took action again to end the war.
That vote marks just the beginning –– July will be a month of action on Iraq in the House. Unfortunately the Roadblock Republicans, supporting an unpopular President, are trying to stand in our way. But you can help us remove their roadblocks and bring this war to a close. I'm hoping that you can help us send 10,000 letters–to–the–editor to newspapers across the country by July 20 showing how strongly the American people back the Democratic plan to redeploy our troops and end this war.
Please send a Letter to the Editor of your local newspaper, telling the Roadblock Republicans that they can't block the will of the American people any longer. Please voice your support for the Democrats' plan to end the disastrous war in Iraq. More than six months into the President's troop surge, it is clear that his strategy isn't working. A new report this week confirmed that the Iraqi government has failed to meet the agreed-upon political, economic and military benchmarks. Democrats will continue to hold the President accountable and fight to ensure that the Iraqi people take control of their own country.
With each passing week, we see the tragic consequences of the President's failed policy in Iraq. More than four years have passed and more than 3,600 American lives have been lost. More than 26,000 of our troops have been wounded. More than $450 billion has been spent. Democrats are demanding a New Direction and an end to this war.
That's why I'm asking you to stand with us today. Will you help me?
Please join our fight today by sending a Letter to the Editor, supporting the Democrats' plan to redeploy our troops and end the war in Iraq. Sincerely,
Rep. Chris Van Hollen
DCCC Chair
P.S. More than 70 percent of the American people are demanding an end the disastrous war in Iraq.
Please join our fight today by sending a Letter to the Editor of your local newspaper, telling the Roadblock Republicans that they can no longer block the will of the American people.
