Domestic Impact of the War

National Labor Leadership Assembly for Peace.

It is disgraceful that a Congress that can vote upwards of $35 billion a year for a senseless immoral war... cannot vote a weak $2 billion dollars to carry on our all too feeble efforts to bind up the wound of our nations 35 million poor.

This is nothing short of a Congress engaging in political guerilla warfare against the defenseless poor of our nation.
