From Congressman Bill Foster:
“Today marks the fifth anniversary of the start of the war in Iraq.
We are proud of the work our fine men and women in uniform have accomplished in the field. They have done everything we have asked of them. We are forever indebted to their service and the sacrifice their families have made.
Nothing would honor their service more than bringing them home.
I campaigned on bringing an end to this war. The people of the Fourteenth District want this war brought to a close and they want our troops responsibly brought home. With nearly 4,000 lives lost, tens of thousands injured and more than 200 million dollars a day spent in Iraq, the American people have clearly stated that we have sacrificed enough.
Those who stand with President Bush in opposition of change do so against the vast majority of this country. It is time to lay down the partisan agendas, end the bickering and solve a very important problem. It’s time to bring our troops home.”
