Congressman Doug LaMalfa

SB 924, The “Pull Out Of Iraq Now” Advisory Bill, Voted Out Today

By a vote of 43 to 32 of the Assembly today [43 Democrats voting "aye", all Republicans present plus one Dem voting "no"]  a bill, AB 924, goes to the Governor, [if the Senate votes to concur on the amendments], that would place on the February ballot, a measure asking voters if they want to advise the President to withdraw from the "occupation" of Iraq.

Assemblyman Plescia, in his floor speech, made a strong point.  He expects that those legislators voting for this measure would also be endorsing Cindy Sheehan for the Pelosi Congressional seat.

For the reasons I stated in my previous post, I call on our Governor to veto this measure, one harmful to our troops morale and to the prospects of the newly forming free Iraqi goverment.
