Great news!
EVERY U.S. Senator, including Lautenberg and Menendez, signed on to the letter urging the Arab League to persuade the Sudanese government to allow UN peacekeepers to protect civilians in Darfur.
174 Representatives signed on to the letter in the House, including:
Rep. Robert E. Andrews (D-NJ-01)
Rep. Jim Saxton (R-NJ-03)
Rep. Christopher H. Smith (R-NJ-04) **Letter Author**
Rep. Scott Garrett (R-NJ-05)
Rep. Frank Pallone (D-NJ-06)
Rep. Bill Pascrell (D-NJ-08)
Rep. Steve Rothman (D-NJ-09)
Rep. Donald Payne (D-NJ-10)
Rep. Rush D. Holt (D-NJ-12)
Given that NJ-13 is still vacant, that means that only two of our state’s Members of Congress did not sign on. They are Congressmen LoBiondo (R-NJ-2) and Ferguson (R-NJ-7).
Thank you once again to everyone who helped bring all of these Members of Congress onboard through office visits, phone calls, and online actions!
