Bob Menendez on the Levin-Reed Amendment

From Harry Ried:
Republicans don't have an agenda -- only a strategy to stall the will of the American people.

Yesterday I brought the Levin-Reed Amendment to the floor of the Senate. This amendment requires the President to begin bringing our troops home in 120 days. Once again Republican leadership resorted to technical maneuvers to block efforts to end the war.

If Republicans do not allow a vote on Levin-Reed today, I will keep the Senate in session straight through the night. The American people deserve an open and honest debate on this war, and they deserve an up-or-down vote on this amendment to end it.

I need your help to send a clear message to Senate Republicans: Stop Obstructing. It's time to change course in Iraq.

Republicans are using a filibuster to prevent us from voting on an amendment that could bring the war to a responsible end. They are protecting the President rather than protecting our troops and are denying us an up-or-down vote on the most important issue facing our country.

Plenty of Republicans are talking the right way on Iraq, expressing disapproval for the President's policy.

But speeches won't end the war, votes will.

Tell Republicans: Stop Obstructing. It's time to change course in Iraq.
