US citizens: How to lobby for a troop pullout from Iraq
The Friends Committee on National Legislation's website has a great resource page that tells us the specific lobbying steps we should be taking to push for a speedy (and hopefully also total and generous) withdrawal from Iraq. Look in particular at this page there, which tells us that right now, "Congress has one final opportunity in this session to pass legislation barring the Pentagon from spending money to establish permanent military bases in Iraq"
So do go there, explore their great and information-packed website... and get going with the lobbying. They have lots of great ideas for what we can do-- on Iraq, and on a whole range of other issues.
Excellent, thanks for informing us.
