E-mail George W Bush on WTO Ruling

[Treasure the Questions]

I've just recieved this good news in an e-mail from Oxfam

[font=Arial,Helvetica]

[font=Arial,Helvetica]More than 10 million West African farmers and their families will benefit hugely from a WTO ruling this week that US cotton dumping is illegal and must be stopped. A key actor in the case told us that the actions of the Make Trade Fair campaign, its supporters and allies made a big contribution to achieving this result. Your campaigning does make a difference! [/font]

However, nothing is ever that straightforward and they did add

[font=Arial,Helvetica]

[font=Arial,Helvetica]This is a major victory in the fight to make trade fair and we could start to see a domino effect of unfair trade rules falling away. But all is not won. There are elements in the US and EU who will fight back to defend the multi-million dollar interests of big business in continuing this dumping. Please e-mail President Bush and ask him to implement the legally binding ruling, which will help West African farmers and their families work their way out of poverty. [/font]

Just remember to keep it polite. It'll be more effective that way .
