NDN Endorses U.S. Troop Readiness, Veterans’ Health, and Iraq Accountability Act

NDN, a progressive think tank and advocacy organization, today issued the following statement in support for the U.S. Troop Readiness, Veterans' Health, and Iraq Accountability Act, scheduled for a vote on the House floor tomorrow.
 
As the war in Iraq enters its fifth year, it now clear that President Bush’s strategy to bring democracy and stability to the Middle East is not working.  The centerpiece of that strategy, the war in and the occupation of Iraq has cost our nation American lives, money and prestige, and left the region more volatile and dangerous than before.  Our nation, and the world are less safe as a result.
 
NDN believes that the U.S. Troop Readiness, Veterans’ Health, and Iraq Accountability Act, scheduled for a full House vote tomorrow, offers a better path forward, and we endorse its passage.
