We are Chicago area residents who first came together as Chicagoans Against War in Iraq in September 2002 feeling the urgency to raise our voices and take action against the growing danger of war in Iraq. We come from all walks of life and many political perspectives, but we are united on the belief that the Bush administration is pursuing a reckless, lawless and dangerous policy that is against the best interests of our country and the world. The threat posed by the Hussein regime to the region could have been contained and thwarted by other means. In June 2003, to adapt our name to reflect the changing political atmosphere and our changing goals, we changed our name to Chicagoans Against War and Injustice.
