Motive
The Pentagon has reopened bidding on the contract for the next generation of Air Force refueling tankers, which were originally awarded to the European defense firm EADS. (a European company) What the Air force did was a very short-sighted considering that Russia owns 5 percent of EADS and is pushing for 10 percent more. United Arab Emirates now controls 7.5 percent of EADS. Russia owns 5 percent of EADS and is pushing for 10 percent more.
Objective
To support Rep. Patty Murray's initiative to award Tanker Refueling contract to Boeing.

Dear Patty Murray, with your effort and the effort of concerned citizen's the unfair contract to award Tanker Refueling contract to EADS was stopped. We fully support your initiative to keep our defense contracts from losing to overseas contractors. We believe that It makes perfect sense economically and it is important to our National Security. Thank you for your involvement.
