George Bush wants to send the Pennsylvania National Guard, and Guard units around the country back to war in the Mid East! We need your help …

KEEP THE GUARD HOME!

A national campaign is underway in multiple states to bring attention to the fact that the October 2002 Authorization to Use Military Force, enabling Bush to have sent our National Guard to Iraq, has EXPIRED.

Please urge your memberships to sign the following petition:

Be it resolved, the citizens of Pennsylvania demand:

1. That our Governor immediately pursue and exhaust every avenue in his power to stop further deployment of Pennsylvania National Guard troops to Iraq.

2. That our Governor pursue and exhaust every avenue in his power to bring the Pennsylvania National Guard troops currently deployed in Iraq home without delay.

by: 1.   Urgent action!

Here's what I've sent to the governor: The PA Guard's casualties are too high, and we have lost far too many of our finest citizens. Never forget the unnecessary deaths of Sherwood Baker, Gerry Pellegrini, Francis Straub, John Kulick, and over 30 other Pennsylvania Guardsmen killed in a war based on lies, cover-ups and greed! This MUST stop! The Guard should be our bastion against homeland attacks and natural disasters, not sent overseas. Thank you. -- A Veteran (Vietnam era)
