Since our inception in 2004 the organization has sponsored many community actions. We continue to grow with new members and activities. Please take a look to see what Aiken Peace has been up to. Upcoming Events:Action Alert:Tell Your Congressman "No War Funding, We Need an Exit Strategy!" The House of Representatives is about to approve an additional $33 Billion in supplemental war funding... without an exit strategy from Afghanistan. In fact, all Congressman from SC voted on July 1st against an amendment calling for an exit strategy from Afghanistan. In the wake of the recent leaks revealing how poorly the war is going, a blank check is unacceptable. CALL & EMAIL YOUR CONGRESSMAN. Tell him you OPPOSE THE SUPPLEMENTAL WAR FUNDING and that you are very displeased he VOTED AGAINST AN EXIT STRATEGY. Let them know what you think. Rep. Joe Wilson (SC District #2) Phone: (202) 225-2452 Email: [click here] Rep.
