Thank Our Reps for Their NO Vote 
On Tuesday July 27, Congress voted to approve spending for combat operations -- another $33 billion of our tax dollars went to continue the senseless and deadly war and occupation in Afghanistan.
Three of our South Bay representatives voted NO: Mike Honda, Zoe Lofgren, and Anna Eshoo. We should call their offices to thank them for their NO vote and urge them to step up their opposition. If Jerry McNerney is your representative -- he voted yes -- his office also needs to hear from you.
A recent (7/13) poll by CBS news found that most Americans -- 54 percent -- think the U.S. should set a timetable for the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan. Of Democrats polled, 73% want a timetable.
Our representatives should step up their opposition -- let them know their constitutents demand it!
