Congress is about to send an important bill to the White House—it would require the president to start bringing our troops home from Iraq this year. President Bush has said repeatedly he's going to veto it. It's outrageous. Most Americans support a timeline and he's standing in the way.
This will be a pivotal moment on Iraq—it's not clear what Congress or the president will do after the veto. We need to make clear that President Bush is really vetoing the will of the American people. And we need to tell Congress to hold firm.

Petitioners now have over 7500 signatures calling for an audit of the City of St. Louis. Missouri statutes indicate that the number of signatures must equal 5% of those who voted in the most recent race for governor. That would be 7200 signatures.
