ACTFORCHANGE ACTIVISM UPDATE: August 3, 2006

URGENT ALERT

Support an Immediate Cease-Fire in Lebanon

A small but growing number of representatives are supporting House
Concurrent Resolution 450, calling for an immediate end to the
violence in Lebanon and negotiation of a settlement to be enforced by
international peacekeepers. This resolution is the best hope for an
end to the rapidly rising civilian toll in this deeply troubled
region, and should be approved in Congress.

The United States bears a special moral responsibility in this crisis
as the only nation that can bring an end to the violence and relieve
the humanitarian catastrophe. The current policy of delay only leads
to more unnecessary civilian deaths in both Lebanon and Israel.

Ongoing conflict in Lebanon is also likely to have great consequences
for the region, the world and the safety of our nation and its allies.
Congress needs to step forward and call for an immediate cessation of
hostilities by passing H.C.R. 450.
