He will tell us about legislation he is proposing.

Effects of Depleted Uranium
Over one million US troops, contractors, and civilians along with unnumbered Iraqis, will suffer the effects of depleted uranium for generations.

Tune in at 5 pm every Wednesday or stream/podcast here.

Last week we played Winter Soldier testimony about the dehumanization of the enemy from Domingo Rosas, the trailer from Body of War, and discuss the growing list of casualties. Get the podcast before it’s too late.
