CodePink Urges Congress to Stop Funding Iraq War

HeadlineSep 06, 2007

On Capitol Hill, the antiwar group CodePink marched to the U.S. Capitol Wednesday to ask Congress to stop funding the war.

CodePink’s Medea Benjamin: “We’re here to say that the people of this country are absolutely disgusted with this Congress that has just laid down and given Bush all the money he’s asked for for this war. They’re being asked for another $200 billion now, and we’re here to say: The people say no, and we’re going to whip you into shape until you start listening to us. No more money for this war.”
