Vote this week: call to end the war in Afghanistan
November 28, 2011
Thank you to all of you who took action last week urging your senators to cosponsor the Merkley amendment for a quicker withdrawal from Afghanistan.
The Senate is back in session this week, and they need to feel the heat on this. Will you take a minute to call your senators and urge them to vote yes?
Senate switchboard: 202-224-3121
Here’s a sample message. Please add your personal thoughts about why you want to end the war in Afghanistan:
My name is ___________ and I live at _________. I am calling to urge Senator ________ to vote yes on the Merkley amendment supporting a quicker withdrawal from Afghanistan.
This vote offers a rare opportunity to get the Senate on record on ending the war.
Thank you so much for holding them accountable.
