It only takes a minute...
CALL-IN DAY ON THURSDAY TO
RESTRICT MILITARY ASSISTANCE TO COUNTRIES
USING CHILD SOLDIERS


This Thursday let Congress hear your concern for children who are used as soldiers!
A large, bipartisan coalition, including Human Rights Watch and World Vision, is attempting to help these nearly 250,000 exploited minors by supporting the restriction of US military assistance to governments that recruit or use child soldiers.
AFJN urges you join them in calling your Senators this Thursday (July 12) to support THE
CHILD SOLDIER PREVENTION ACT OF 2007 (S. 1175).
Just dial the Capitol Switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and request to be connected to your elected representative, or call your Senator’s local office.
