Tell Congress: Stop fueling war in Yemen

Yemen is facing a massive humanitarian catastrophe and we need your help to stop it. American aid is crucial to the Saudi war effort, and removing our assistance would limit Saudi attacks and may be even push them to the negotiating table. Email your Representative now and ask them to support House Resolution 81, the Khanna Pocan resolution to stop US military action in the Saudi-led war in Yemen.

Below is some sample text to get you started, but please customize the message in your own words.

Dear Representative,

Seven million people are facing the threat of famine as the result of our taxpayer dollars supporting a Saudi-led war in Yemen. As your constituent, I urge you to take strong action against American complicity in the Saudi-led war in Yemen. We cannot sit by while our government dollars increase suffering in a country devastated by conflict, cholera, and famine.

I strongly urge you to co-sponsor and support the bipartisan H.Con.Res. 81, sponsored by Reps. Ro Khanna, Thomas Massie, Mark Pocan, and Walter Jones. The privileged resolution would end  U.S. military involvement in the Saudi-led war in Yemen.

Since March 2015, the United States has provided the Saudi-led coalition in Yemen with political and military support, including targeting intelligence, mid-air refueling, and other logistical support. U.S. support is not only perpetuating the humanitarian crisis in Yemen, it is also emboldening al Qeada in the Arabian Peninsula there, which has taken advantage of the power vacuum created by the civil war.

It is expected that H.Con.Res. 81 will come to a vote the second week of October. When it does, I urge you to support it.
 
Sincerely,
