Action Alert
2 February 2004, 12:44 PM
Here's a chance to help make a difference! Urge Your Senators to Co-Sponsor Afghan Women Bill Senator Barbara Boxer (D-CA) introduced the "Afghan Women Security and
Freedom Act 2004" (S2032) before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee
last week. Please email your Senators now and urge them to co-sponsor
Boxer's bill to provide the necessary support and security for Afghan women
and girls. This act calls for direct funding for the Ministry of Women's Affairs, the
Afghan Independent Human Rights Commission, and Afghan women's
organizations. In addition, the act calls for the expansion of
international peacekeeping forces and the authorization of Provincial
Reconstruction Teams (PRTs) and peace troops to intervene to stop human
rights and women's rights violations, which the current mandates do not
allow.
