Hi there,

This month, Democracy Now! marks 29 years of fearless independent journalism. Presidents have come, gone and come back again, but Democracy Now! remains, playing the same critical role in our democracy: shining a spotlight on corporate and government abuses of power and raising up the voices of scholars, advocates, scientists, activists, artists and ordinary people working for a more peaceful and just world. If our journalism is important to you, please donate today in honor of our 29th anniversary. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Democracy Now!

Early Friday morning, the Senate voted 67-23 to back the Iraq war resolution. One of those who spoke up for the resolution, to some people’s surprise, was Hillary Rodham Clinton, despite the overwhelming number of calls from her constituents against war.

Protests continued against Clinton on Thursday when student protesters staged a sit-in at her New York office.

Today Democracy Now! breaks the sound barrier by interspersing the voices of these protesters with those of Clinton.

Tape:

  • Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY)
  • Jane Hirschmann, author and educational activist.
  • Laura Flanders, journalist.
