Statement of U.S. Labor Against the War on the Occupation of Iraq
“We call for an end now to the U.S. occupation and for all military, political and economic authority to be transferred to the people of Iraq. . . . We call upon all public officials and candidates for office to oppose this war and the never-ending occupation and to support steps that can be taken immediately to end it. . . . It is time to acknowledge this tragic mistake and to hold to account Bush and those who prosecuted this disastrous war.”

THE OCCUPATION OF IRAQ MUST END

Veterans and Military Family Members in the Labor Movement
Talk Sense about Supporting the Troops

We are trade unionists. We are military veterans and family members of active and reserve military personnel. We say we must repudiate our militarized foreign policy, dismantle our worldwide network of military bases prepositioned for intervention and renounce preventive and preemptive wars. Otherwise we will only send more of our loved ones to die for no good reason, in a world made more dangerous for them and for us by the arrogance and ignorance of our own government.

The best way to support our troops is to bring them back alive and well, and to bring them home now. If you agree, we urge you to sign on to this statement and circulate it widely in your union, workplace and community Sign Petition

U.S. Corporations in Iraq

U.S. corporations like Halliburton and Bechtel received no-bid contracts worth billions of dollars for reconstruction and other activities in Iraq. This was the first step in the Bush administration's plan to privatize and sell of key sectors of Iraq's economy. USLAW has produced a report on 18 of these corporations which exposes their anti-union, environmentally irresponsible and socially immoral record. This report and news accounts are gathered in this area from various sections of the website.
