Rhode Island Senator Reed Votes Against the "Feingold
Amendment".
Yesterday the Democratic leadership orchestrated a symbolic
vote in the U.S. Senate on the “Feingold Amendment” which
would have removed combat troops – except for some very
broad exceptions – by March of 2008. Forty-seven
Republicans, one independent and 19 Democrats opposed the
plan drafted by Senator Russell D. Feingold, Democrat of
Wisconsin, which would have limited spending mainly to
counterterrorism and the training of Iraqi troops after March
31, 2008.
'Jack Reed' voted against the "Feingold Amendment" keeping
U.S troops in Iraq. (4,012 troops have died so far.)
