It's Week Six in the "10 Weeks to Testimony Campaign" sponsored by Vets for Freedom and today is "Cost of Defeat" Call-in Campaign day.
From VFF:
Washington DC-based, anti-war radicals are also active, and they plan to make their next political statement on Thursday, August 16th. According to a MoveOn.org strategy memo, they will "release a hard-hitting report to local media on what the war has cost your congressional district. This will happen on August 16th."
Call Instructions:
1. On Thursday, call your 2 Senators and 1 Representative. Call their offices in your home state and remind them of the "Cost of Defeat" in Iraq. Use the links below to find the phone numbers for your members of Congress:
