Title A name given to the resource Madison Area Peace Coalition E-mails Description An account of the resource The Madison Area Peace Coalition (MAPC) formed fourteen days after the September 11 attacks to oppose (among other goals) the use of U.S. military, economic, or political force – whether direct or proxy, overt or covert -- "that violates the sovereignty or human rights of any nation or people." The Archive has assembled here e-mails exchanges from MAPC dating from the group's founding until late November 2001.

Dear Committee,      I found a few items you might want to keep in mind for meeting Feingold. (1)      First, the Friends' Service National Legislation site alerted me to this impending legislation from Senator Helms.  Let's ask Feingold to oppose it. http://www.fcnl.org/act_lam_current/actnow_lam_index.htm (2)      Here's the same site's recommendations on talking to legislators about upcoming military spending authorization, though it doesn't give bill numbers.  Seems like handy background. http://www.fcnl.org/issues/afghanistan/terrorism/stmt_military-spending.htm (3)      Also, let's give Feingold a big thanks for his lone opposition to "Patriot Act" S.1510.  Here's the ACLU's summary of that: http://www.aclu.org/news/2001/n101201c.html (4)      Now here are a few more thoughts.  Please bear with me, since I am new negotiating that www.thomas.loc.gov site (?address I think).  I found out from that that Feingold co-introduced S.1564, a bill relating to US adherence to the ABM Treaty.  It's now in the Committee on Armed Services. I haven't read the bill.  Let's do that since it's  lead by Feinstein, who can be hawkish.      A truly excellent resolution S.172 has been introduced into the Senate by Sen. Wellstone.  This is a sense resolution relating to humanitarian aid to the Afghanis.  Let's ask Feingold to back it.  I couldn't tell if he has or not.  It's in the Committee on Foreign Relations now.  Wellstone submitted a speech about it in the Congressional Record of 10/18.      There's also a S.173 resolution condemning violence against Iranian-Americans.  Presumably this won't be controversial, since they've already done the same with Arab-Americans and Sikh-Americans.      This may be outside the realm of our group, but S.1473 federalizes airport security (if the House will pass something similar).  I'm not sure how Feingold voted on this.  Personally, I think it's unacceptable for a legislator NOT to vote for this.  Certainly is a more direct response to the problem than starting a war!      Hope this helps.  Looking forward to seeing you Tuesday.
