<P>-Members to lay out new Iraq legislation that brings troops home within
6-months during Wednesday's press conference -</P>
<P>Washington, DC - US Reps. Lynn Woolsey (D-CA), Barbara Lee (D-CA),
co-Chairs of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, and Congresswoman Maxine
Waters, Chair and Co-Founder of the Out of Iraq Caucus, will hold a press
conference on Wednesday at 2:00pm in the Radio/TV Gallery to introduce The
Bring the Troops Home and Iraq Sovereignty Restoration Act, new legislation,
which would force President Bush to withdraw all US forces, currently in Iraq,
within 6-months.... The legislation, which is designed as a comprehensive
alternative to the Administration's "New Way Forward", would repeal the
authorization for the use of force, fully fund a 6-month withdrawal of US
forces and military contractors from Iraq (from the date of enactment of the
legislation), prohibit permanent military bases in Iraq, provide economic and
political aid to the Iraqi government and fully fund the VA Health Care system
for all military veterans.</P>
