U.S : President BIDEN, REDUCE MILITARY SPENDING ! There is OTHER PRIORITIES !!

 

 

 

 

 

Friend, the defense budget has increased TWICE in the last few months and now there could be yet another increase. Here’s what has happened.   Last year, Congress passed a $770 billion military budget. That was even higher than TRUMP’s last defense spending bill. I fought for a 10 percent cut in military spending from the year before. Instead, Congress wanted more giveaways to private defense contractors and military waste.   A few weeks ago, Congress allocated even MORE money to a bloated military budget. I voted No. Now, this in Politico :           $813,000,000,000 would be a significant increase over the current defense budget and tens of billions more than Trump’s last defense budget. It’s unconscionable spending, friend. It’s a giveaway to defense corporations. And it’s wrong.     The Pentagon doesn't need this money — working people who can't afford child care, housing, and health care do. Will you join me and sign on to our petition calling on President Biden to reduce military spending?           Sign on           Democrats could be doing the work of guaranteeing health care for everyone in this country, it could be ensuring workers get a raise and time off, and it could be passing transformative legislation to address the climate crisis. Those are the things I’m fighting for, because delivering for the people, our communities, and our planet is my job.   We cannot normalize massive defense budget increases. We cannot allow endless defense spending and giveaways to private defense contractors come before investments in the people.     I need you in this fight with me to deliver for our communities, our people, and our planet. Add your name today, and demand a reduction in the military’s budget in favor of these priorities.           Sign on           In solidarity,         Pramila.

PRAMILA FOR CONGRESS. DOES NOT EQUAL ENDORSEMENT.
