<div align="left" class=""><p class="">Dear Robert,<br class="">
<br class="">
Today the <em class="">New York Times</em> had a <a href="http://org.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=ryzTXHwwXJBGdlBKHOb2yhDSSWccJshP" target="_blank" class=""><b class="">very strong editorial</b></a> calling for Congress to block the proposed Saudi arms deal. The NYT said:</p>
<blockquote class="">Congress should put the arms sales on hold and President Obama should quietly inform Riyadh that the United States will withdraw crucial assistance if the Saudis do not stop targeting civilians and agree to negotiate peace.</blockquote><p class=""><b class="">Rep. Tammy Duckworth is running to be our Senator from Illinois. Call Duckworth now at <a href="tel:202-225-3711" value="+12022253711" target="_blank" class="">202-225-3711</a>.</b> When you reach a staffer or leave a message, you can say something like:</p>
<blockquote class="">"Please make a public statement that the U.S. should put the arms sale to Saudi Arabia on hold until Saudi Arabia stops targeting civilians in Yemen and agrees to negotiate peace."</blockquote><p class="">When you've made your call, <b class="">please report it <a href="http://org.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=En2MULH5KdpgVV8IDkHYFhDSSWccJshP" target="_blank" class="">here</a>.</b><br class="">
<br class="">
And if you haven't signed and shared our petition to Congress yet against the arms deal, <b class=""><a href="http://org.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=t%2BKFlUdywk2UqUDttIcLlRDSSWccJshP" target="_blank" class="">you can do that here</a>.</b><br class="">
<br class="">
Thanks for all you do to help make U.S. foreign policy more just,<br class="">
