NO NUKES PLEASE

The US already has a bloated Pentagon budget. Now the Pentagon wants to spend $100 billion on totally unnecessary nuclear warheads. But with a new president in office, we can finally put a stop to Trump's misguided nuclear weapon spending.

Petition to Congress: Trump's accelerated nuclear weapons programs should be stopped immediately. We demand you block funding for the GBSD nuclear program. ADD YOUR NAME Trump desperately wanted to get his hands on more nukes. On top of all his other foreign policy disasters, Trump also ramped up funding for new nuclear weapons systems. The US already has a bloated Pentagon budget. Now the Pentagon wants to spend $100 billion on totally unnecessary nuclear warheads. But with a new president in office, we can finally put a stop to Trump's misguided nuclear weapon spending. Sign the petition: Tell Congress to defund Trump's $100 billion nuclear weapons system! On the world stage, Trump spent his four years itching for a fight. He assassinated an Iranian general, started a trade war with China, threatened to rain "fire and fury" on North Korea, and sold weapons to the United Arab Emirates. But while we were whiplashing from one presidential crisis to another, Trump was quietly planning to spend $100 billion in funding for a new nuclear weapons system called GBSD (Ground-based Strategic Deterrent). More nuclear weapons don't make the planet more safe. Former Defense Secretary William Perry has argued this plan is totally unnecessary. Instead of tossing millions of our taxpayers dollars into unnecessary nuclear weapons and stoking world wars, we should throw the brakes on Trump's nuclear program and focus on the real war against Covid-19.
