Trump wants to spend billions on bombs

Instead of keeping Americans safe, Trump is lining the pockets of weapons manufacturers.

Send a letter to your member of Congress to rein in Trump and prevent further U.S. involvement in a war with Iran! Dear MoveOn member, Over the weekend, Donald Trump broke the law and bombed Iran without congressional approval.1 While threatening health care for 16 million Americans, Trump is pushing the United States into another endless war in the Middle East. Instead of keeping all of us safe, he's lining the pockets of weapons manufacturers. No one voted for blank checks for bombs, zero oversight, and more forever wars. Will you take a few minutes out of your day and send a letter to your senator and your representative to stop U.S. involvement in a war with Iran? We've seen this before and we know how it ends—in endless conflict, human suffering, and trillions of dollars wasted. This news comes as our communities right now are fighting against the Republican majority in Congress trying to pass legislation that will close hospitals, take away health care from millions, food assistance from children and will cause millions to go without basic care, housing, and security.2 We cannot allow Trump's war machine to keep rolling, and we cannot allow Congress to look away and enable it. Send your letter now to demand Congress use their Constitutionally-granted power. Tell your member of Congress: No more blank checks for endless wars. No more funding bombs while gutting healthcare. We are done fighting unjust, violent and never-ending wars, and we refuse to let them start another one. We need lawmakers to show the courage to say NO to the military-industrial complex and YES to the people. Members of Congress need to use the checks and balances guaranteed in the Constitution to pull back President Trump, and prevent more endless wars. Thanks for all you do. –Nakia, Allison, Cheryl, Mia, and the rest of the team Source: 1.
