U.S. Department of Peace Alliance Website

PeaceAlliance.org is the website for groups working to establish a U.S. Department of Peace. Currently (May 2005) alliance members are gearing up for an historic citizen lobbying effort to create a U.S. Department of Peace, sponsored in the House of Representatives by Congressman Dennis Kucinich. The bill will be re-introduced on September 13th, 2005. This bill establishes nonviolence as an organizing principle of American society, providing the U.S. President with an array of peace-building policy options for domestic and international use. The 3rd Annual Department of Peace Conference will be held Sept 10-12 2005 in Washington as part of the run-up to the lobbying effort. The website offers audio and video information, including audio clips providing organizing tips.
