Dear Congressman Pombo:

 

People’s Lobby has drafted World Service Corps (WSC) congressional legislation that would build an all-volunteer army of a million peaceful, productive Americans who would serve at home or abroad in areas of need.  The financial incentives used to inspire one million (.6th of 1% of 20-60 year old) Americans to serve are modest.  Funding the WSC will save more than its costs by dramatically reducing costs in other federal programs. 

 

While doing good at home and abroad, the WSC’s success will dramatically reduce:

·         Shots fired at our brave soldiers.

·         Hatreds expressed against some of our policies.

·         Number of hot spots we must deal with.

·         Spreading “Ugly American” image.

 

The citizen-initiated WSC legislation and substantial information is available at www.WorldServiceCorps.us.  As PLI educates the country on the need for such non-partisan legislation, we are also:

·         Seeking support statements from candidates and elected officials of all parties. 

·         Asking Congresspersons to declare whether they would support and/or co-sponsor the WSC proposals.

 

Do you support the WSC congressional proposals?

Would you consider co-sponsoring the WSC proposals?

 

Thanks.  PLI looks forward to your reply.

 

Sincerely,

 

 

Dwayne Hunn, Ph.D.

Executive Director
