: Open CongressHow Many In the House Want to End the War in Afghanistan?
By Sunlight Foundation & Participatory Politics Foundation
Earlier this week, the House voted on a resolution (H.Con.Res.248) from Rep. Dennis Kucinich [D, OH-10] directing President Obama to begin withdrawing troops from Afghanistan within 30 days. As expected, the resolution failed. But it failed by a larger spread than I think most would expect. Only 65 members of the 435-member, Democrat-dominated House of Representatives voted for the bill.
You can see who voted "yes " on withdrawing the troops here: 60 Democrats and 5 Republicans.
