In the halls of Congress, it doesn't matter that kids are going hungry, that education is being slashed, and that our roads are crumbling. Yet, we know ending the wars could change this.
Heed the call to help Rebuild the American Dream. Join us at house meetings next weekend, July 16-17 to ensure that ending the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, banning drone attacks, and cutting the military budget are part of the progressive agenda developed.

Help us lead the way to a more peaceful tomorrow,
