Activism Alert: Students for Victory in Iraq

This was posted by Jonathan Klingler, Outreach Director for Students for Victory in Iraq on the CR Nation facebook group:
During the week of September 10th, Commander General David Petraeus is scheduled to testify in front of the House and Senate. He will give testimony regarding the progress made since the new counterinsurgency strategy was implemented in January as part of the ‘surge’. Following his appearance before Congress, lawmakers are expected to once again bring up withdrawal legislation.
At about that time, on September 17th, and 18th, large numbers of pro-victory veterans and citizens will be in our nation’s capital speaking to elected officials about the necessity of victory and the severe consequences of defeat. We can take part in this push in our own way on college campuses.
Here’s what each of you can do to ensure victory:
1. Download and print copies of our support petition here.
2. Contact pro-victory groups at your school and collect as many signatures as possible from students who support the mission in Iraq
3. Find the address of your US Representative’s local office by clicking here.
4. On September 17th, gather together as many pro-victory students as possible and personally deliver your stack of petitions to your US Representative’s local office.
As we work to amplify the voices for victory we join with our pro-victory veterans in their efforts to overcome the forces of defeat in Washington, DC. Together we can make an impact and allow General Petraeus and our troops to continue towards victory in Iraq.
