Congressional votes on H.Res. 867

November 4, 2009 by David

thumbs_down Here are the results from OpenCongress.org of yesterday’s disappointing Congressional vote to slam the Goldstone report, an AIPAC-written bill sponsored by Ileana Ros-Lehtinen.

H. Res. 867 – Calling on the President and the Secretary of State to oppose unequivocally any endorsement or further consideration of the "Report of the United Nations Fact Finding Mission on the Gaza Conflict" in multilateral fora.

Please make sure you write your congressman and thank or spank them appropriately. Then write Clinton and Obama and ask them to stand aside and let the UN do its work of referring human rights abuses to appropriate organizations.

First, a hat off to the brave souls who bucked AIPAC.
