Bailout the people, not the Pentagon + arms dealers!
To U.S. Congress:
We urge you to focus your attention on the national pandemic response and economic relief for people across the United States rather than providing more money for the Pentagon’s already
As you continue to provide urgent and vital relief to the people of the United States in response to the coronavirus pandemic, we urge you to oppose appropriating any additional money to the Pentagon — whose already overflowing coffers stand at over $756 billion in fiscal year (FY) 2020 — greater than 50 percent of total annual discretionary spending.

Why is this important?
The Pentagon is seeking BILLIONS and BILLIONS from Congress in the next COVID relief stimulus package. Why? To protect the mega-profits of arms dealers and defense contractors.
Yes. That’s right. As we lose tens of thousands of loved ones here, and hundreds of thousands around the world, to COVID-19 — the Pentagon wants even MORE money on top of the near trillion dollars it already wastes every year on unnecessary weapons and Trump’s racist border wall.
We say ENOUGH. That's why we're going toe to toe with arms dealers, and demand Congress not give the Pentagon a PENNY MORE in the next coronavirus relief package.
Will you ask Congress to demand we bail out the people, not the Pentagon and arms dealers in the next coronavirus relief package?
