Would you be willing to add your name to the following 3-line statement?
The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have cost Americans over $1 trillion in direct costs, and over $3 trillion altogether.

It’s time for Congress to reject any funding except to bring all our troops safely home.
Please let me know.
