20 States Oppose Bush's Iraq Escalation

The following press release (in the extended entry) on the the Progressive States Network's State-Based Anti-Escalation Campaign just went out. The number of state resolutions continues to grow, as does the amount of local media/grassroots attention. As just two examples, last week we had major media splashes in Kansas and Oregon - two states with U.S. Senators who continue to support the Iraq War and the escalation. To find out state-by-state details of the campaign and to get in touch with your state legislators asking them to support these resolutions, go to www.progressivestates.org/iraq .
