June 20 is World Refugee Day. Take action for Iraqi refugees.

Today, June 20, is World Refugee Day.

On this day, please take the following action from Refugees International to help Iraqi refugees:
-----

The displacement of Iraqis from Iraq is now the fastest-growing refugee crisis in the world. The UN estimates that 2 million Iraqis have fled violence in their country. Although the United States and its allies sparked the current chaos in Iraq, we are doing little to ease the humanitarian crisis caused by the current exodus. These people need our help.

Please send a letter urging President Bush to address the refugee crisis. The violence in Iraq has reached a deadly tipping point and neighboring countries are being overwhelmed by the massive influx of refugees. Most refugees are unable to earn an income outside of Iraq and need help to pay for housing, education and medical care. The US government can make a difference for these people if it takes a few key steps.

Tell President Bush that he must not ignore the plight facing Iraqi refugees any longer.
