Statement of U.S. Senator Russ Feingold On the President’s Failure to Create a New Strategy for Iraq “It has been six weeks since Americans overwhelmingly called for a change in our Iraq policy through the ballot box. The President continues to ignore this demand for change from the American people as well as from members of both parties. Instead of continuing with an Iraq-centric policy that is hurting our national security and straining our military, the President should announce a timetable for the redeployment of U.S. troops from Iraq so we can refocus on the global fight against terrorist networks.”
