Kucinich introduced a bill today that would abolish the federal \r\ndeath penalty, noting the 101 men and women exonerated from Death Row. \r\n"The imposition of the death penalty," stated Kucinich, "is both \r\nracially and economically biased. African American defendants are more \r\nlikely to receive death sentences than others who committed similar \r\ncrimes. Life imprisonment without the possibility of parole is an \r\nacceptable moral alternative to capital punishment."\r\n\r\nJoining Kucinich in co-sponsoring the "Federal Death Penalty Abolition \r\nAct" were 36 members of Congress, including Progressive Caucus co-chair \r\nBarbara Lee and ranking Democrat on the Judiciary Committee, John \r\nConyers, as well as many fellow progressives and members of the Black \r\nand Hispanic Caucuses.\r\n\r\nBUSH WHITE HOUSE IN "CRISIS OF LEGITIMACY"\r\nHaving led opposition to the Iraq war in the House, Kucinich today \r\ncontinued his demands for the truth about the lead-up to war, asserting \r\non the House floor:\r\n\r\n"This Administration deliberately led this nation to war based on based \r\non false premises. Iraq had nothing to do with 9\/11. Iraq did not \r\npresent an imminent threat to the United States...\r\n\r\n"This Administration's deception made America less secure. It has cut \r\noff the US from the world community. It violated the US Constitution. It \r\nviolated the UN Charter. It violated the Geneva Convention. It continues \r\nto cost the lives of our men and women in uniform. It has cost the lives \r\nof countless innocent Iraqis. It will cost the American taxpayers well \r\nover $100 billion. It has caused tens of billions of dollars in damage \r\nto Iraq. It has strengthened religious fundamentalists who now threaten \r\nthe freedom of women in Iraq society.\r\n\r\n"America faces a crisis of the legitimacy of the government itself, \r\nwhich lied to the American people to get approval for a war."\r\n\r\nGONE QUIET? While Kucinich has been unrelenting in giving voice to the \r\nmillions of people who questioned -- and still question -- the Iraq war, \r\nother presidential candidates seem to have muted their voices. The New \r\nYork Times reports today, "Dr. Dean moved sharply away from the issues \r\nthat had catapulted him to early prominence: his opposition to the Iraq \r\nwar and, to a lesser extent, his advocacy for universal health care... \r\nHe did not mention Iraq once in the course of his 26-minute speech."\r\n--\r\n\r\nIf you have not yet voted in the MOVEON primary (deadline Wednesday \r\nnight 11:59pm eastern), please vote for the genuine peace and justice \r\ncandidate, Dennis Kucinich.\r\n\r\nWHY KUCINICH? He's the candidate promoting a bold progressive agenda and \r\nbuilding a winning coalition of activists committed to peace, economic \r\njustice, civil rights and liberties, the environment, women's equality, \r\ngay rights, workers rights.\r\n\r\nENDORSEMENTS ROLLING IN: Kucinich has just been endorsed by \r\nenvironmental hero Randy Hayes. Over the weekend, legendary civil rights \r\nactivist Grace Lee Boggs endorsed. Last week, it was Ben Cohen and \r\nCongresswoman Lynn Woolsey. Former FCC Commissioner and author of "How \r\nto Talk Back to Your Television Set," Nicholas Johnson, has also endorsed.\r\n\r\nDONATE: Send your endorsement in the form of a contribution, and have \r\nthe federal government match it.
