5 House Progressives Can End the Wars
5 House Progressives Can End the Wars

Just 39 House Progressives could end the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan/Pakistan (Af/Pak) by opposing the Pentagon's demand for another $95 billion. That's because all 178 Republicans will vote no over $5 billion for the IMF.

Nearly 15,000 of you emailed your Representatives, and 34 House Progressives responded to you by opposing the $95 billion. So now we need just 5 more. 15 are leaning no, and 20 are undecided.

We have a quick script, and you can call any time of day or night.
