======== EXIT AFGHANISTAN NOW: SUPPORT THE BUDGET FOR ALL - BROWN BAG LUNCH
         VIGIL ===============================================================

*When:* Wednesday, October 17, 2012, 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm  
*Where: *Downstairs from Sen. John Kerry's office • corner of Cambridge &  
New Chardon Streets, Boston • Bowdoin or Government Center T • Boston
/The New York Times/ came out for rapid withdrawal from Afghanistan in an  
October 14 editorial.    Senate candidate Elizabeth Warren has done the  
same in several recent debates.

What about Senator Kerry?  Will he continue to support two more years of  
conflict followed by a further 10 years of residual occupation, as the  
Administration proposes? Or will he support a rapid end to the war?

11 years after the US attack on Afghanistan, 73,000 US troops remain there.  
Bring the troops home now - not in 2024 as the Administration proposes.

The Budget for All Referendum will allow one million Massachusetts voters to  
say they want the troops OUT of Afghanistan NOW.  Let's get the word out  
about  the Budget for All and send a message to Sen. Kerry at a Brown Bag  
Lunch Vigil.
Join us -- and tell us in advance that you'll be there, so we can put your  
name on the letter!   Register to attend
