Department of Peace

"There is currently a bill before both houses of Congress to establish
a United States Department of PEACE, this historic measure will
augment our current problem solving modalities; providing practical,
nonviolent solutions to the problems of domestic and international conflict.

"The legislation will pass from bill to law under one condition; that a wave
of citizens interested rise up from the American people and make itself
heard in the halls of Congress." [from The Peace Alliance broacher]

You can read more about this extraordinary bill at: www.thepeacealliance.org

Or, if you so choose,
Contact your representative in Washington D.C. and ask them about HR-808 -- 202 224 3121.
