On April 14, our IRAQ FORUM was attended by leading Iraq scholars, refugee advocates, experts on humanitarian emergencies, and more than 220 concerned constituents from across the U.S. On the following Tuesday and Wednesday, we met with 71 Congressional offices and 10 lawmakers directly. Our case was strengthened by the participation of Iraq War veterans, aid workers, religious sisters and clergy, Iraqi expatriates, doctors, students, and homemakers.
