Support Cindy Sheehan's Vigil in Crawford, Texas
Posted: Wednesday March 15th, 2006
Cindy Sheehan, whose son Casey was killed in the Iraq war, went to President Bush’s ranch in Crawford, Texas last week to ask the President, "Why did you kill my son? What did my son die for?" Like millions of Americans, she believes that the U.S. presence in Iraq is making the situation there worse, not better, and the best way to support the troops and the Iraqi people is to bring the troops home immediately.

Peace Action Denton supports and applauds Cindy for her strength and courage, and asks our members to support her in the following ways.[learn more]
