Let Us Remember and Respond!
We are fighting two wars in which thousands of US soldiers have died or been wounded and hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians have been killed and wounded.
We are spending BILLIONS on these wars while teachers are not hired, houses are not built, and families go without food, shelter, and healthcare; and an economic depression brings more and more unemployment, foreclosures, and despair.
