January 07 Demonstration
Posted on Tuesday, October 20th, 2009
- Donate political posters to the Center for the Study of Political Graphics (cspg@politicalgraphics.org) and help continue their work for social justice and peace.
- Tell your senators and representative to co-sponsor the newly introduced bill to establish a timetable for withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan: H.R. 5015/ S. 3197. If passed it would allow Congress a fundamental vote on the direction of our foreign policy.
- Ask your members of congress to co-sponsor the International Violence Against Women Act, H.R. 4594/ S. 2982. If passed, our government would have to respond to outbreaks of gender-based violence (like the mass rapes occurring in the Congo), put violence-reduction solutions into foreign assistance, and make ending violence against women a diplomatic priority. For more information, go to www.amnestyusa.org or womenthrive.org and enter IVAWA in the search box.
- Insist on support for thousands of trained Congolese women police officers. Write to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and ask her to allocate funding for training women to protect their sisters in the bush.U.S. Department of State, 2201 C Street NW, Washington DC 20520.
