Taxpayers are spending $200 billion a year for the war in Iraq, while companies like Halliburton and Blackwater waste billions through fraud and mismanagement.  Meanwhile, the Bush Administration won’t fund healthcare for 10 million children.  So, we're working to cut corruption and waste in Iraq, and use those resources for our priorities, like healthcare, education, and energy. Help us by signing the petition below and becoming a member of Progressive Future. As a member, we'll keep you in the loop on our progress, invite you to help in whatever way you can, ask your opinion on the issues and our strategies, and even give you a chance to vote on who should sit on our board of directors.

Petition Text

To: Halliburton CEO David Lesar
      Blackwater CEO Erik Prince

Your corporations have been exposed in the news as defrauding the US government and putting our troops at risk.  You deny the accusations.  Prove it.  I urge you to support the War Profiteering Prevention Act of 2007, Senate Bill 119 and prove to the American public that your corporation is not stealing our tax dollars.  Support this bill’s provisions that:

Criminalize war profiteering
Prohibit fraud against the US government in war contracts
Provide stiff enforcement penalties against violators -  up to 20 years in jail and $1,000,000 in fines
