🚨Stop Trump’s War Budget From Looting America
America at 250 must be about people, not Pentagon waste: stop reckless war funding and invest in health care, food, housing, education, and the public good.
📢 America Needs Care, Not More War Spending
Friends, this week we need all hands on deck — and that includes you.
This week, Trump and his enablers in Congress are heading back to Washington, D.C., with one mission: hand even more public money to the war machine while families are being told to survive on less.
This is one of the most corrupt and reckless presidencies of our lifetime, enabled by Republican members of Congress who keep choosing Pentagon waste, defense contractors, lobbyists, and war profiteers over the people they are supposed to serve.
Let’s be clear: a government that can fund bombs can fund health care. A country that can enrich defense contractors can feed children. A Congress that can find billions for war can find the courage to protect communities, house families, lower costs, strengthen public schools, and keep people thriving.
Do not let them tell us there is no money.
There is money. There is plenty of money. The question is who gets it.
This week, Congress must hear from us. No more blank checks for wars no one wanted. No more slashing housing, health care, food assistance, education, climate action, and basic needs while pouring public money into militarization. No more draining our communities to enrich defense contractors and lobbyists.
Join us for Liberty, Justice, Power to the People Take Action Tuesday as we break down Trump’s reckless war spending, Congress’s role in enabling it, and the actions people can take right now to stop blank checks for war.
No blank checks for war. No more excuses. No more Pentagon waste while families are told to survive on less.
We the people deserve a budget that serves the public good.

“My name is ____________ and I am calling from ____________. I urge Senator / Representative ____________ to vote against Trump’s $1.5 trillion Pentagon budget. Oppose any increase in Pentagon funding. Support cuts to wasteful Pentagon spending. This money should be invested in health care, food, housing, education, climate action, and the basic needs of our communities.”
Friends, our silence is surrender. Action is how we the people take back the wheel.
While families are struggling with groceries, rent, health care, and everyday survival, Trump is demanding more money for militarization, war, and Pentagon waste. Congress has a choice: rubber-stamp another massive war budget or stand with the people who are tired of being told there is no money for care, food, housing, schools, climate action, and dignity.
As America marks 250 years, this moment demands that this country live up to the values it claims to hold: liberty, justice, democracy, accountability, and government of, by, and for the people. Across generations, ordinary people have stood up to kings, tyrants, robber barons, segregationists, authoritarians, and corrupt leaders who put power and profit over human lives. Now is our time to speak out and show up.
