WASHINGTON , DC — Green Party leaders participating in the week-long Encampment to End
the War in Washington, DC and other cities across the US pressed their demands for an immediate withdrawal of US troops from Iraq, with a plea to Congress to cancel further war spending.

The events, which will culminate in a march and rally on Saturday, September 29, have been
