If you can make any credit card donation ($20 or $2000 or whatever you can) to help Tina Richards in her struggle — our struggle — to defend her son and end the war, please click on the Donation button at Tina's web site:
http://grassrootsmissouri.org/
which will use Paypal to send your donation directly to her.
If you cannot do this, you can send a check made out to IOW but ear-marked for Tina to:
IOW, 438 N. Skinker, St. Louis 63130
and let us know that it's coming. We will transfer your donation directly to her paypal account.

Please check back at IOW, for updates on this fast-changing mobilization.

Here is the contact information for the members of the House and Senate Defense Appropriations Sub-Committees. You can follow the committee links to send the members emails, but phone calls and faxes will be more effective. Ask them to meet with Marine mom Tina Richards, and to end funding for the Iraq war.

If they agree on the phone to meet Tina and/or have a specific appointment time available, please let her know immediately by text message— do this by sending a short email to 5732478059@cingularME.com, or by TM directly to 573.247.8059.
