What we stand for:

We call for an end to this criminal war on the Iraqi people and demand nothing less than the immediate and unconditional withdrawal of all occupation forces from Iraq and the closing of all military bases. We call for the redirection of resources to further justice, equality, and human needs here at home, not death and misery.

* Troops Home Now!
* End the Occupation of Iraq!
* Stop the attacks against Arabs, Muslims and all people of color!
* From the Gulf Coast to New England and beyond…
Fund human needs, not war and occupation!
* Military recruiters out of our schools!

How we do our work:

Stop the Wars Coalition has based itself organizationally on the way the coalitions for the March 20, 2005 rally in Boston, and the October 29, 2005 march and rally, were organized. These coalitions formed based on agreement on public actions focused on immediate withdrawal of U.S. forces from Iraq.

* Any group or any person in agreement with the objective was welcome to participate fully.
* Decision-making meetings were open and widely publicized.
* Democratic procedure was followed. Efforts were made to reach consensus, but votes were sometimes taken.
* Outreach included inviting groups to present their own slogans in building events, inviting groups to express their concerns from the speaker's platform, endorsing actions initiated by other groups, and inviting groups to announce and publicize their own separate actions through the coalition structure.
* Demands relevant to the antiwar struggle were adopted as slogans of the M20 or O29 actions.
* STWC has sought to promote unity and non-exclusion in the antiwar effort.
