About this Petition Pledge






http://org2.democracyinaction.org/o/5441/t/4048/signUp.jsp?key=548

Iraq Action Days is a joint initiative by 24 national organizations working to help Iraqi families who are struggling amid violence, drought, poverty and instability.

Last April, hundreds of concerned citizens joined us in Washington, DC for a National Iraq Forum with United Nations and government officials, human rights advocates, aid workers, and leading experts from Iraq and the region.

What are the latest trends in violence? How are innocent civilians affected? What is being done to help?

 For answers to these questions and more, Watch the Forum Now.

Then join the fight for lifesaving humanitarian action: Sign the Pledge and Tell a Friend

THE HUMANITARIAN PLEDGE

WE BELIEVE that the people of Iraq and the United States are interconnected by events over the past five years, and that far more is needed to help Iraqi families who are displaced or otherwise affected by violence in Iraq.

WE CALL ON the U.S. administration and the President and Members of Congress to do far more to:

Strengthen humanitarian assistance to the region; Support effective relief, peacebuilding, and community-based development in Iraq; and Increase U.S. admissions and expedite resettlement of vulnerable Iraqi refugees.

WE COMMIT ourselves to help millions of Iraqis in need of humanitarian relief and protection and to make a better, safer world for the people of Iraq and the United States
