Senator Russ Feingold (D-WI) and Representatives Jim McGovern (D-MA) and Walter Jones (R-NC) have introduced legislation rejecting an open-ended military commitment in Afghanistan by requiring a timetable for the withdrawal of our troops. As the first bipartisan, And the need for such a bill is clear. As Representative McGovern puts it: “After 8 long years, hundreds of billions of dollars and – most importantly – thousands of our brave soldiers killed or wounded, it is past time to re-examine this strategy. Instead of nation-building in Afghanistan, I believe we should be doing some more nation-building here at home.” Join Feingold, McGovern and Jones and ask your Members of Congress to co-sponsor S.3197 and H.R. 5015. |
