On January 9, 2009 there was a vote for the following bill:
Recognizing Israel’s right to defend itself against attacks from Gaza, reaffirming the United States’ strong support for Israel, and supporting the Israeli-Palestinian peace process
We all know this bill had nothing to do with defending Israel against attacks from Gaza. We all know this is not supporting any peace-process but helping the State of Israel continue to use American taxes to kill the people of Gaza. The following men and women of Congress were the only ‘nay’ voters to the above bill.
- Congressman Dennis Kucinich of Ohio (D) – http://kucinich.house.gov/
- Congresswoman Gwen Moore of Wisconson (D) – http://www.house.gov/gwenmoore/
- Congressman Ron Paul of Texas (R) – http://www.house.gov/paul/
- Congresswoman Maxine Waters of California (D) – http://www.house.gov/waters/
- Congressman Rick Rahall of West Virginia (D) – http://www.rahall.house.gov/
Please contact them and thank them for their ‘nay’ vote.
Here is the full listing of the voting results of the bill.
