[Peace-discuss] Tim Johnson congratulated us on being consistent

[Jenifer Cartwright]

Kudos to Tim Johnson for admitting he was wrong. So now will he vote NOT to fund the escalation OR even the ground war and drone attacks?? It would be appropriate to mention that aspect while we're at it.. AND also SCHIP and health care reform w/ a public option. How long do we have to wait until he realizes he's wrong about those?

Thanks, Karen for passing this on. i agree with others: Let's give Tim Johnson a hand officially. He didn't just change his mind; he acknowledged that AWARE has been consistent. 


There is a related issue that REP. TIM JOHNSON has been relatively good about: TORTURE. The National Religious Coalition Against Torture will be meeting with him (probably in Washington D.C.) this Wednesday to ask him to be a co-sponsor of a bill to establish a select committee to review our past interrogation practices and recommend future restrictions.
 NRCAT asks us who are in his district to start calling his office to urge him to be a co-sponsor. Same time we can thank him for coming to the right conclusion on the wars. Two reasons to call! 
Please give Tim Johnson a call this week sometime. Washington D.C. (202) -225-2371 or 2004 Fox Drive, (217) 403-4690.
