Swarm on Congress Summer of Action Housing Board

May 15 - July 31

United for Peace & Justice invites you to a summer of action to protest the illegal U.S. occupation of Iraq. We will be a visible peace presence in the halls of Congress, meeting with members of Congress, attending hearings, conducting protests, sit-ins and media events, all to throw sand in the gears of government until this war is over!

Plan to come for a few days or a few weeks -- we promise an effective, productive, energizing and fun experience!

If you are looking for housing, or can offer housing in DC this summer, please check the listings below; if none of these listings meet your needs or suit what you can offer, add your own listing.

We don't have a lot of money for this trip, but we really want to get involved in some things up there this summer. We don't have a lot of experience, and we're trying to start some things in our hometown, so we thought this would be a good experience. If you could get back to me before Wednesday, I'd really appreciate it!
