Friday, July 20

News from around Iowa

IOWA – Last week, the U.S. House of Representatives passed meaningful legislation to begin safely and responsibly winding down the war in Iraq, despite Iowa’s Fourth Congressional District Representative Tom Latham’s vote against the measure. Since the very beginning of the war in 2003, Rep. Latham has voted to enable President Bush’s reckless Iraq policy with vote after vote after vote. With no more than 70 percent of the American public calling for the withdrawal of nearly all troops from Iraq by April, local educators in Clear Lake, Fort Dodge and Ames, IA will simultaneously deliver Rep. Latham a failing Iraq ‘report card’ to each of the Congressman’s constituent offices at 11AM on Friday, July 20th detailing his abysmal record supporting President Bush’s costly, irresponsible and failed policies in Iraq. The Iowa Educators will deliver remarks outside each office calling on Rep. Latham to represent the vast majority of Iowans and vote to bring a safe and responsible end to the war.
