Since last Monday, ONE members have been writing and calling their senators asking them to sign on to the “Feinstein-Hagel” Dear Colleague letter asking for $39.8 billion for the international affairs budget (IAB). We want 60 signers by Friday, and right now we’re at 43.

If you don’t see both of your state’s senators below, please call 1-800-786-2663 and urge them to fully fund the IAB in 2008. Go here for some talking points for your call.
