Six men and women representing Veterans for Peace and Military Families Speak Out visited the office of Rep Russ Carnahan (D-MO). Two were ultimately arrested for trespassing when they chose to wait for Carnahan's pledge to oppose any new funding for the war. Here are comments made by the group before entering the office.
Thank you for this. Your experience, your thoughtfulness...and your courage speak volumes.

This is DEMOCRACY in action. This is what it takes to make our system work. Holding our representatives responsible to action may be the best legal way to end this war in Iraq.
