US India Political Action Committee Launches Petition to US Congress - requests changes in US AID to Pakistan conditioned on shutting terror camps!
Washington DC, Dec 01, 2008. The US India Political Action Committee (USINPAC) continues to implement a rapid response to the terrorist attacks in Mumbai. USINPAC's action plan includes working with several key Members of Congress to develop an effective response from the US, supporting a Congressional Resolution condemning the attacks, supporting US-India counter-terrorism legislation, and organizing a Congressional Briefing on the origins of the terrorist attacks and the best way for the US to proceed.
USINPAC is circulating a petition calling for changes in US aid to Pakistan to be signed by Indian Americans across the country and will then present the petition to Congress.
To access the petition, please visit http://www.petitiononline.com/USINPAC9/petition. html
It is important to get massive participation on this petition to demonstrate to the US Congress and the administration the anger, pain, and desire for action on the issue of terror camps in Pakistan that is being felt by the Indian American community. Please sign the petition immediately to reflect your response to the Mumbai Attacks and forward to at least 10 people you know!
"USINPAC's mission is to be the political voice of the 2.5 million Indian American community," said Sanjay Puri, Chairman of USINPAC. "We have spent every waking moment since the attack to help shape America's response to the attacks. It is important for Indian Americans to show their resolve on this issue by signing this petition and getting their friends and family to do so too".
USINPAC spoke with India Caucus Co-Chair Rep. Jim McDermott (D-WA), who will be authoring a Congressional Resolution condemning the attacks. USINPAC will help Rep. McDermott gain Congressional support for the resolution. Further, USINPAC will work with Rep. McDermott to organize a Congressional Briefing on the terror attacks as soon as Congress is back in session. USINPAC will also help gain Congressional support for US-India counter-terrorism legislation being authored by Rep. Steve Israel (D-NY).
