Dear Senator Bayh,

Another week has gone by. We have had another week of the US dead and another round of civilian and Iraqi military deaths.

We have had another week of lost opportunity to improve the world by turning our country's wealth to peaceful actions. If we are going to incur massive debt, why not for constructive actions, not destructive ones.

On your website I see your efforts to improve armor and make more Hummers.

While we need safety for our soldiers, we also need efforts to make the Hummers more useful for peaceful means, not just for war and and heavily tax-subsidized entertainment.

Best regards,

Ellyn Stecker
