CALIFORNIA ASSEMBLY PASSES IRAQ BALLOT MEASURE

After nearly two hours of passionate debate, the California Assembly
approved legislation Monday to ask voters whether they support ending
the Iraq War and immediately withdrawing troops.

The bill also asks whether the United States should provide the "necessary diplomatic and nonmilitary assistance to promote peace and stability in Iraq and the Middle East."

Monday's Assembly vote was largely along party lines, 43-32, with no Republicans supporting SB 924. Assemblywoman Nicole Parra, D-Hanford, was the only Democrat to oppose it.

This is great news! I hope other states will follow suit.

Let's get this on the ballot in all 50 states and send Congress and the White House a message that's loud and clear: Americans are united in wanting to bring our troops home.
