War $ Not Passed Yet

On July 1, the House sent a bill with $33 billion in war escalation funding in it back to the Senate, but with changes the Senate will have
to deal with. There is a good chance the Senate will make changes and
send it back to the House.

If that happens, we will be in a good position to stop it. Already last week the House was unable to pass war funding without Republican votes, and
so passed it without technically voting on it at all. The vote on the R
ule to
create that crazy procedure, however, nearly failed despite the built-in
excuses that (1) it was just a "procedural" vote and (2) it allowed
votes on good amendments. This time, we'll be ready to confront that
first excuse, and the second one won't be there.

Our message to congress members is simple, clear, moral, and urgent: VOTE NO. If good measures are included, VOTE NO. If it's merely a procedural
vote, but the procedure facilitated by it is mass murder, VOTE
NO.

We need to keep calling, lobbying, protesting, disrupting, and communicating, whether this bill comes back to the House or not. There will be another one.
