Call your rep Monday to CLOSE School of Americas, PLEASE
Edited on Sat Jun-03-06 12:00 PM by PuraVidaDreamin
Please call your Rep. MONDAY!!!

See phone script and/or send a fax thru:
http://www.soaw.org/new/article.php?id=96

Next week, the week of June 5, Congress will vote on
an amendment to close the SOA/ WHINSEC. Rep. McGovern
(MA) will introduce an amendment to the Foreign
Operations appropriations bill to cut funding for the
SOA/ WHINSEC!

We expect a close vote and need as many people as
possible flooding the offices of the House of
Representatives with calls in support of a YES vote on
the amendment. This is it! And it's the people power
of our movement that will get this amendment passed!

Please take the time to call the DC office of your
Representative through the Capitol Hill Switchboard at
202-224-3121 or toll free at 1-888-355-3588. Ask to
speak with the foreign affairs legislative assistant.

1. To get an idea of how the vote might look
http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d109:HR01217:@@@N

These are the 133 co-sponsors of McGovern's stand-alone bill to close SOA from last year.

And they say Democrats don't know how to fight terrorism. :eyes:
