Click to tell Congress: Cut the Pentagon Budget! Fund human needs!

It’s the 62nd anniversary of Pres. Eisenhower’s warning against the “military industrial complex.” Now marks an urgent moment to act.

Right now, we’re hearing calls to CUT government spending, but too many in Congress think social programs should face the ax, NOT hundreds of billions for weapons and war.

We cannot accept this as our fate. Let’s break this cycle and redirect resources towards programs that truly benefit ALL people. 

Now is the time for action. To curb the military industrial complex’s influence in our government, tell Congress to cut the Pentagon budget, NOT funding for social programs.
