Resolution Calling for Impeachment of the President of the United States

Whereas, The America First National Committee has adjudged the War Against Iraq to be an unnecessary, improper, illegal, unconstitutional, and immoral misuse of the power and might of the United States Armed Forces and the brave men and women who have volunteered to serve as protectors and defenders of the United States of America and her people; and,

Whereas, The America First National Committee has adjudged the War Against Iraq sets a dangerous precedent for our nation that must be resisted and never allowed to happen again; and,

Whereas, It is only through assuring that the brave fighting men and women of the United States Armed Forces are not misused that we can best support their mission to protect and defend the United States of America;

Now Therefore Be It Resolved by the America First National Committee on this 25th day of October, in the Year of Our Lord Two Thousand and Three:

That We demand that no actions be taken that would endanger the lives and well being of our troops currently involved in combat; and,

That We call upon the Joint Chiefs of Staff to refuse orders they know to be immoral and illegal as required by the Uniform Code of Military Justice; and,

That We demand that Congress refuse to fund preemptive wars of colonial conquest; and,

That We demand that our government refocus its national security efforts on securing our ports and our borders to prevent future terrorist attacks; and,

That We demand that Congress immediately impeach the President and remove him from office for waging war without constitutional authority; and,

That We pledge to work for the replacement of every member of Congress who aids, abets, or shields the President in these impeachable offenses.

(Adopted by the America First National Committee on October 25, 2003)
