My legislation will: Bring our troops home within approximately one year. Refocus our assistance on creating jobs for Iraqis. supporting grassroots multiethnic civil society. and disarming militias. Authorize more aggressive efforts to punish war profiteering and reconstruction fraud. Require a new comprehensive diplomatic effortintemal. regional. and international--to provide support in stabilizing Iraq and promoting ethnic reconciliation. Strengthen efforts to address the Iraqi refugee crisis. This is now about making the best of a bad situation. our military is breaking and our presence in Iraq is doing nothing to ease sectarian tensions or promote a democratic future. We must leave Iraq and we are going to do so before its fixed.
