The Program

Afghanistan Fact Sheet

The U.S. war in Afghanistan is now in its tenth year. Work with FCNL to persuade Congress and the administration to abandon the current failed war strategy.

Stories & Successes

FCNL Statement of Legislative Policy

"Although national security is widely perceived to depend on military strength, more weapons do not provide enduring security. Military expansion provokes fear and potential retaliation.

We support active non-violent responses to prevent or transform violent conflict at all levels.

The United States should develop and support nonmilitary assistance programs in partnership with appropriate international and independent non-governmental organizations."
