Campaign Unavailable

We're sorry, this alert is no longer available. If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit Leahy for Senate.

The short explanation of this alert was:

The international community has produced a treaty to rid the world of indiscriminate "cluster" munitions -- dangerous weapons which pose an unacceptable threat to civilians in warzones.  The agreement requires all signatory nations to halt production of these devastating weapons, and destroy their stockpiles within eight years.

Unfortunately, the Bush-Cheney Administration refused to participate in these negotiations.  So Senator Dianne Feinstein and I have introduced a resolution in Congress, urging President Bush to sign on to this important treaty – and we need your help to get it passed.

Please forward an email to your Senators today -- urge them to join our call for President Bush to sign the cluster munitions treaty.

Thank you,

Patrick Leahy
U.S. Senator
