5/25/05B: HR 1815 funds star wars (not the Lucas movies), wastes money needed for health care and education and continues a fraud against the American people, who are not told that the missile defense system doesn't work. This bill also gives American tax dollars to corporations that funded the 2000 and 2004 campaigns of George W. Bush. A number of Congresspersons listed as receiving strikes in connection with this bill received money from the corporations this bill funded. The bill did not contain the Woolsey Amendment calling for a withdrawal from Iraq.

6/09/05: H J Res 27 called for U.S. withdrawal from the WTO. The WTO is a trade organization which places corporations above people, countries and the survival of the planet Earth. Millions of American jobs have been lost to child slave laborers overseas as a result of the United States's membership in this organizaiton.
