Town Hall Event Planning - Get U.S. Out of Iraq

When:   Wednesday May 17, 2008, 7:00 PM – 9:00 PM

Where:  Darcy Burner Campaign Headquarters

Bellevue, WA

12443 Bel Red Rd Suite 380

The organizing committee for the Town Hall Event: Get U.S. Out of Iraq, would like to invite organizations to both attend and/or participate in event organization.

Our goal is to get attention focused on additional funding of the Iraq war before the burden to human resources in our military, impacts to U.S. and Iraqi families, and pillaging of our financial coffers gets further out of control. 

We have requested input from Darcy Burner and General Paul Eaton because they are both contributors to: “A Responsible Plan to End the War in Iraq.”  This report is a realistic engagement of the bipartisan Iraq Study Group (the Baker-Hamilton Commission) findings to which they added a proposed implementation strategy.  

Plans for the event have yet to be finalized, but for now we anticipate having our speakers discuss the Plan, and hear intentions for Plan implementation and invoking supporting legislation.  Beyond the speakers we currently have committed, including date, time, and facility, we have yet to consider additional speakers or agenda so there is room for input.

We will be focusing on our message of: "Getting U.S. Out of Iraq;" Darcy Burner will be a featured speaker, but we are not directly focusing on the Burner campaign beyond what she will do with her Plan.  However, we intend to appeal for as much media coverage as possible.
