September 11, 2001, defined America's national security challenges for the start of the 21st century. The full support of NATO, the United Nations and other multinational organizations provides our best guarantee that terrorism and the states that sponsor it will be defeated.

Yet the US has chosen to meet this challenge almost alone, systematically alienating friends and allies—and many Americans as well—at every step of the way.

Results for America is a project to advocate for those whose voices most need to be heard in the coming year, the people most directly affected by decisions made in Washington, D.C., state houses and corporate boardrooms around the country. Our national security initiative is designed to focus public attention on the many serious problems in the current US foreign and military policy and to put some practical solutions front and center.

We hope you find this information helpful. Please make use of this and all other resources available in the security toolkit, to demand real leadership on national security issues. The future of America—our future—depends on it.
