Slaughter on the Iraq supplemental spending bill
Slaughter (as head of the rules committee) just introduced the supplemental spending bill for the Iraq war that mandates withdrawl from Iraq by 2008; the actual vote will take place tomorrow. Here’s her statement:
“This is a war that is being fought by soldiers who often do not have the equipment they need or the care they are owed, that is not improving the security of the Iraqi people, that is depleting our military and endangering the security of this nation, and that is to this day based on a flawed strategy that desperately needs to be changed,” Rep. Slaughter said.
There’s a YouTube link but it seems to be crashing the site right now. I’ll put it up later.
