event at Sununu's office, April 24 @ 11am

MoveOn.org, an organization most of us are familiar with, asked me to host a small (or large) event in front of Sunnu's regional office in Portsmouth. (I hope it is OK to cross-promote on this forum.) They have put together a report, based on extensive polling, showing how the American people see the link between our endless war and the recession. We will be presenting this report to Sununu's staffers (he is unlikely to be there) Thursday, April 24 @ 11 am. The office is at 1 New Hampshire Avenue, Portsmouth, near the entrance to Pease.

MOVEON MEMBERS TO DEMAND SEN. SUNUNU STOP SPENDING ON ENDLESS WAR AND FOCUS ON ISSUES AT HOME

WILL RELEASE NEW REPORT: NEW HAMPSHIRE VOTERS SEE ENDING THE IRAQ WAR AS BEST WAY TO HELP LOCAL ECONOMY

 

Durham, NH – On Thursday, April 24, members of MoveOn.org Political Action in the Seacoast Region will release a new report, "Iraq and Recession". The report focuses on groundbreaking poll numbers that show that voters in New Hampshire believe that the billions of dollars a week spent on Iraq war should be invested in economic priorities at home.

 

“Senator John E. Sununu has consistently voted with the President to spend half-trillion dollars on this endless war in Iraq, while ignoring the mounting economic pressures of voters here in New Hampshire. The billions per week we’re spending there could be invested in our faltering economy here at home,” said Timothy Horrigan, local MoveOn member. “It’s time to bring our troops home and use those same dollars for the priorities of most Americans--health care, clean energy, and job creation--to help those hurt by the impending recession.”

 

After the event, local MoveOn members will deliver the report to Sen. Sununu at his Seacoast Region office at the Pease International Tradeport in Portsmouth.
