WWL: Jim Himes on Afghanistan

Congressman Jim Himes is back from a fact-finding trip to Afghanistan
Published: January 25, 2010 - 10:04am

Congressman Jim Himes is back from a fact-finding trip to Afghanistan. He’s been talking about his findings in a series of town-hall meetings.

Himes had heard from a wide range of Fairfield County constituents – many upset about President Obama’s plan for the war. Himes says he’s still getting information, and hasn’t fully made up his mind, but the anger is starting to sound a lot like what surrounded the Iraq war, only a few years ago.

Today, Where We Live, Himes tells us what he’s learned – and what action he supports in Afghanistan.

We’ll also talk about health care reform - not surprisingly, a very hot topic at these same forums.

We’re broadcasting live from the studios of WVOF at Fairfield University - and you can join the conversation, Where We Live, right after this news.
