IAVA Supporter
This week, IAVA launched a new watchdog program to track the hundreds of billions of dollars allocated for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, called Follow the Money.
Hundreds of thousands of Troops waited months for adequate protective gear, vehicle armor and basic necessities like radios and night-vision goggles, yet Halliburton and other private contractors always had exactly what they needed. At the same time, huge sums of money are missing. Our new project will make sure it's going to what buy what the Troops really need - and when we find out otherwise, we'll hold the politicians feet to the fire.
How can you help? If you know someone who served on the ground in Iraq, please encourage them to share information they might have about misuse of taxpayer dollars. Send an email to info@iava.org. We'll work with Congress, the media, and the Department of Defense to demand accountability.
Thanks for your support.
Sincerely,
