New START for a Safer World
The Senate Foreign Relations Committee will vote soon on the new START treaty with Russia, which will further reduce the number of deployed nuclear weapons in the arsenals of both the U.S. and Russia.
Ask your senators to publicly support this important treaty and to vote to ratify it when they have the opportunity.
Ask five friends to act as well.
War Funding Vote Shows Growing Movement for Change
On July 27, the House approved, by a vote of 308 to 114, another $33 billion more in 2010 for the U.S. wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. If your representative voted against that war funding, please thank her or him .
The good news is that 114 members of Congress voted against more money for war - an increase from the 32 representatives that opposed war funding a year ago. Jim Fine sees growing pressure for change in this vote.
