JOIN US IN DC ON CAPITOL HILL MARCH 10TH TO 12TH WWW.STOP-LOSSCONGRESS.ORG free housing and food by donation THIS MARCH WHILE THE SUFFERING, DEATH AND DESTRUCTION GOES ON IN IRAQ AND AFGHANISTAN, CONGRESS WILL BE ON A SPRING BREAK, IGNORING THE KILLING AND SUFFERING THEY HAVE ENABLED, SUPPORTED AND FINANCED.

TO INTENSIFY THIS IRONY, CONGRESS HAS CONDONED A WIDESPREAD STOP-LOSS POLICY IN THE MILITARY WHICH REQUIRES SOLDIERS TO INVOLUNTARILY EXTEND THEIR TOURS OF DUTY.

IT IS TIME TO STOP-LOSS CONGRESS!

ON MONDAY, MARCH 10TH AND TUESDAY THE 11TH, IRAQ VETERANS, VFP, STUDENTS AND CITIZENS OF CONSCIENCE WILL DELIVER “OFFICIAL” STOP-LOSS ORDERS TO ALL MEMBERS OF CONGRESS IN THEIR CAPITOL HILL OFFICES. THESE ORDERS WILL NOTIFY THEM THAT THEIR SPRING RECESS, LEAVES, AND VACATIONS HAVE BEEN CANCELED.

JUST AS THEY REQUIRE THAT ACTIVE-DUTY PERSONNEL ENDURE INVOLUNTARY EXTENSIONS OF THEIR TOURS OF DUTY, WE THE PEOPLE FOR WHOM THEY WORK, ARE NOTIFYING THEM THAT THEY TOO, WILL HAVE THEIR TOURS OF DUTY INVOLUNTARILY EXTENDED UNTIL EVERY SOLDIER AND CONTRACTOR IS OUT OF IRAQ AND HOME.

WHEN ALL OF THE TROOPS ARE HOME THEN THEY CAN COME HOME! ON WEDNESDAY, MARCH 12TH, WE WILL TAKE NON-VIOLENT DIRECT ACTION, TO ASSURE THAT THEY DO NOT GO HOME BUT REMAIN TO DO THE JOB WE ELECTED THEM TO DO.

NO MEMBERS OF CONGRESS GOES HOME UNTIL THE TROOPS COME HOME.
