Tell the President-elect to support Iraqi refugees

The Ploughshares-funded Refugees International is calling on the incoming Obama adminstration to ensure a stable Iraq and comprehensively address the needs of displaced Iraqis. "Regardless of how long U.S. forces stay in Iraq, failure to address the needs of displaced Iraqis will have dramatic impacts on security inside Iraq and throughout the Middle East."  Add your voice to those who are asking President-elect Obama to increase funding for aid to Iraqi refugees in neighboring countries, allow Iraqi refugees to remain in exile until conditions in Iraq are safe enough for them to return home, pressure the Government of Iraq to meet the immediate and long-terms needs of displaced Iraqis inside the country, and increase the number of Iraqis resettled into the U.S.
