Power to the peaceful, Judith LeBlanc Field Director Peace Action P.S.-Yesterday commemorates the 12th anniversary of the Afghanistan War. We opposed the invasion from the start and have worked tirelessly to end the occupation. Because of your help, troops are slowly leaving now, with plans for most of them to be home by the end of next. We will continue to push the administration to bring all troops home as soon as possible.
