Section 7, Article 1 of the United States Constitution states that Congress shall have the Power...

"...To declare War, grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal,6 and make rules concerning Captures on Land and Water;..."

We at the RE-Constitution project find this Section of great importance, for today, it has been reported that active-duty military personnel are now calling for an end to the war in Iraq.

We feel that Congress must be compelled by this demand from their own military for withdrawal, and it must be done with mercy. Lately, we have not heard the use of the word mercy in the concern for our troops over there. As Congress has the Power to declare War, so should they have the Power to end war. Not only that, Congressional hearings must need be held on the Hill before Recess on the same topic.

We urge you to contact your Congressional representative now, today. Contact them by the internet, e-mail, telephone, the US Mail, by telegram, etc. Contact them today and let them know how you feel about pulling out of Iraq. Our troops are asking for this merciful act, they can wait and suffer no longer - so we can wait no longer.
