Congresswoman Barbara Leeis the lead sponsor of the Bill to Create a US Department of Peacebuilding. She is also the leading proponent of a bill to revoke the "Authorization for the Use of Military Force" which has given the president broad powers to wage war without congressional approval since she (alone in Congress) first opposed it in 2001.
Sylvia Boorsteinis a Buddhist author and teacher whose work has inspired millions in recent generations toward greater compassion, clarity, and connection. Her books include "Solid Ground; Buddhist Wisdom for Difficult Times," and "Happiness is an Inside Job."
