Voters delivered a resounding anti-war mandate on Election Day. They want leaders who listen, make life more affordable, and put our safety first. Congress must now choose: Listen to the people and reject a bloated Pentagon budget OR continue to prop up Trump’s war machine.
We don’t have to wait for the new Congress to be sworn in on January 3 to turn our anti-war vision into reality. Lawmakers are debating and negotiating multiple legislative vehicles that could plow more than $1.5 TRILLION toward the Pentagon today.
We know Congress must leverage the power of the purse to cut off funds for Trump’s war immediately. But after inexcusable absences sunk a crucial effort to impeach Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, it’s clear that not enough lawmakers are feeling the heat from their constituents. That changes now.
