Dear John, We wanted to invite you again to join our Tuesday CODEPINK CONGRESS Calling Party to mobilize peace legislation! Chat with peacemakers and experts on September 7 at 5 pm PT/8 pm ET: Join us for a conversation about the dire economic crisis
facing Afghanistan. Our guests will talk about the need to push back
on U.S. sanctions and the withholding of international funding, which
only harms the Afghan people; the need to end U.S. drone
assassinations, how to deal with the Taliban, and how to support
Afghan women.
