For or Against the Surge?

Think Progress has been making a list and checking it twice, to find out which Senators and Members of Congress support Bush's surge (escalation). Think Progress gives the toll-free Capitol switchboard number -- 1-800-614-2803.


Here is part of the list compiled by Think Progress. The list includes the name of the elected official, and if they are for or against Bush's surge/escalation of the war in Iraq.

Boehner, John R House OH-8 Support
Brown, Sherrod D Senate OH Oppose
Gillmor, Paul E. R House OH-5 Support
Hobson, David R House OH-7 Lean Oppose
Jones, Stephanie Tubbs D House OH-11 Oppose
Kaptur, Marcy D House OH-9 Oppose
Kucinich, Dennis D House OH-10 Oppose
LaTourette, Steven R House OH-14 Oppose
Pryce, Deborah R House OH-15 Refused to Answer
Regula, Ralph R House OH-16 Support
Ryan, Tim D House OH-17 Oppose
Schmidt, Jean R House OH-2 Unknown
Space, Zachary D House OH-18 Oppose
Tiberi, Patrick R House OH-12 Unknown
Voinovich, George R Senate OH Oppose
Wilson, Charles D House OH-6 Unknown

These people work for us. How can they refuse to answer on where they stand on this important matter?
