People's Report
New York State has four new representatives - all of whom are tepidly to adamantly against the war. This brings New York State's total up to 18 congress people mostly against the war, 3 who are on the fence and 8 who support it. Peace Action of New York State is organizing a huge campaign to coordinate visits in all of New York's 29 districts to turn election time anti-war rhetoric into results. We also need to monitor work on nuclear proliferation, Iran, and cooperation with the world community to eliminate torture and small arms sales to human rights abusing countries. Contact the 110th Congress
