Million Doors for Peace Petition

August 2008

Members of the United States Congress:

The five and a half years of war in Iraq is a devastating act of misplaced priorities:

• It has drained American taxpayers of at least three trillion dollars which could have gone towards investments that strengthen our economy, such as: health care for our families, ensuring the best education for our children and youth, and addressing the energy crisis.
• Casualties of War – the hundreds of thousands dead and wounded – have shattered American and Iraqi families’ lives.
• And the Iraq war has devastated America's standing as a worldwide symbol for democracy and justice.

Because of these reasons the majority of American and Iraqi people want the United States to begin a withdrawal of American troops from Iraq as soon as possible, with a date certain for completing that process.

Therefore, we, the undersigned, call on [Rep. / Sen. NAME] to immediately support and pass legislation that will set a specific date to bring U.S. troops home from Iraq within a year.
