On February 5th, 2007,
legislation to establish a U. S. Department of Peace was re-introduced
into the U.S. House
of Representatives. The new bill number is HR 808.
We need your support
to help make this bill law; call, fax and/or email
your Representative
and also
spread the word
to everyone you know (you can copy this alert and forward to your
email address book.)
Nothing you can do will
have as much impact as contacting your member of Congress today. Further instructions
are given below.
TAKE ACTION NOW!
*** CALL
YOUR REPRESENTATIVE ***
Contact your Representative at the U.S.
Capitol switchboard: (202) 224-3121.
To find your Representative,
visit http://www.congress.org. Tell
the staffer who answers your call that you want
your Representative
to sign on
as a co-sponsor
of the
Department of Peace legislation (HR 808). Request a written
response explaining your member's position and
the reasoning behind
it. (You can call your local office as well.)
It is most effective if you call the D.C. office
first, then follow-up
with a fax
or email.

***CONTACT SENATORS***
Please contact your Senators as well. There is no bill number as
legislation has yet to be re-introduced into the Senate. Urge your
Senator to be an initial sponsor in the Senate (reference bill number
S.1756 from the last Congress).

we can do
this.
