2008 UFPJ CAMPAIGN SURVEY
Exit this survey >> 

1.

 
The UFPJ Steering Committee has set 3 major priority areas for the coalition's work in 2008. They are:

1) UFPJ will focus its efforts to end the war and occupation in Iraq on two of the major pillars that support it, by working to:
  • end funding for the war;
  • strengthen the capacity of military opposition to the war by supporting Truth in Recruiting projects, resisters within the military, veterans and military families.
2) The coalition will focus energies on preventing any attacks, including the use of sanctions, on Iran.

3) We will work to strengthen the coalition by inviting new groups to join UFPJ and working with our member groups to help expand their organizing capacity. We will continue to build alliances with other anti-war forces as well as other progressive movements for peace and justice. Doing this work today will lay the foundation for our efforts in the future.
