I personally am not going to forget this vote to continue
funding for the illegal, illadvised and incompetently orchestrated
war against the people of Iraq.

Here are the Senators who voted against the Iraq Supplement funding bill
yesterday:

Since I live in Texas, I am going to copy the Texas nays here.

The minimum wage will go up to $5.80 something.
