On Thursday at 11:00 am, Congressman Jack Murtha will outline new details of a strategy to use his Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense to oppose the Bush war in Iraq in a video-taped interview that will be available on the Web site http://www.MoveCongress.org.If that ain't "cutting funding", I don't know what is...
Chairman Murtha will describe his strategy to limit deployment of troops to Iraq and to challenge other aspects of the president's foreign and national security policy. Murtha discusses these steps in a videotaped conversation with former Congressman Tom Andrews (D-ME), the National Director of the Win Without War coalition, sponsor of the new web site.
The Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense has begun consideration of the president's $93 billion supplemental appropriations request for Iraq. Action on the request will be the first opportunity for the new Congress to exercise its "power-of-the-purse" over the Iraq war.
