Tell Congress: No more Iran War funding
 |
One theme is dominating the headlines about last week’s elections. Voters overwhelmingly rejected Trump’s illegal war against Iran. Democrats are saying it, non-partisan analysts are saying it, and even some Republicans are now starting to admit it: The military-industrial complex is gobbling up our tax dollars while people struggle to put food on the table and get life-saving medical care, and voters have had enough. We don’t have to wait until next year to seize this momentum and put a stop to the endless war machine. Congress will vote next month on whether or not to reject Trump’s massive Pentagon budget — including a $150 billion increase over last year, the first step towards his $1.5 trillion goal.
Instead of improving your life, Trump would rather wage war overseas and build “Trump-class” battleships and a “Golden Dome” defense system. Every member of Congress has just seen irrefutable proof that these priorities are massively out-of-touch and deeply unpopular with the American people. So with enough people speaking out, we can push back against Trump’s wasteful Pentagon spending demands and redirect some of this money to addressing real human needs.
Thanks for taking action, George Public Citizen |
