Tell President Biden we need to Defund the Pentagon now! |
Dear friend,Â
Is this Deja Vu all over again? Reports indicate that the Biden Administration is poised to propose a budget with the same level of Pentagon spending as last year, which is why 50 Congressman, led by Representatives Barbara Lee (D-CA), Mark Pocan (D-WI), and Jake Auchincloss (D-MA) sent President Biden a letter urging him to cut the Pentagon budget for the Fiscal Year 2022. Add your name to their letter asking President Biden to Defund the Pentagon and invest in our communities!
50 members of Congress calling on Joe Biden to reduce the Pentagon budget and invest in our communities is historic. Their letter to Joe Biden would be even more impactful if we could send him thousands of signatures showing that people around the country want to Defund the Pentagon now!
Before the Biden Administration releases their 2022 budget, we need to show them that Defunding the Pentagon has broad support around the country: Tell Joe Biden: Defund the Pentagon Budget!
We’re officially one year into a devastating public health crisis that is wreaking havoc on the lives of millions across the globe, now is not the time to continue the failed strategy of pouring hundreds of billions into the Pentagon budget while we underfund public health programs. Add your name to tell Joe Biden: Defund the Pentagon and invest in our communities!
Our community has always supported the movement to Defund the Pentagon and invest in social programs. Last year, your emails and phone calls were instrumental in swaying 116 members of Congress to vote to cut the Pentagon by 10 percent. Now we have an important opportunity to show the new Administration that we won’t rest until we Defund the Pentagon! Let’s sign on and make it happen!
