Call your US Senators now, today… before this weekend (Dec 17-20) is over:

Toll Free: 888-475-8162

… to connect with a switchboard that will connect you directly to your US Senators’ offices.   (Thanks to the Friends Committee on National Legislation for providing this connection for us. We may need to be patient, too; hopefully it may be busy.  You may call direct to the Senate switchboard:  202-224-3121, or search your Senators’ website and send an email.)

Message:  Honorable Senator, please vote to ratify the  New START Treaty before you come home in December.  This is a holy peace-making act on behalf of God’s creation.  Thank you. Especially for you in these US states: AK, AZ, FL, GA, IA, IL, KY, MA, ME, MS, NH, OH, SC, TN, UT, WY

The United Methodist Council of Bishops this week urged the members of the US Senate to ratify the New START Treaty before they go home for the December break.  Read their letter here. For more information and tips to spread the word in your networks see the timely Grassroots Action ALERT from Rethink Media, download here. “In a joint press conference last week by the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops and National Association of Evangelicals, religious leaders called on the Senate to ratify the New START before that august body recessed for the holiday. The National Council of Churches and other Christian bodies representing believers from across the theological and denominational spectrum agree.”  See the whole story here.
