John,

President Biden is putting the final touches on next year’s federal budget right now, and with global tensions on a razor’s edge, “security” is certain to be a top priority. But for decades, the U.S. government has spent more on weapons and war than any other country on earth — and it didn’t make anyone, anywhere, any safer.

We're witnessing the catastrophic fallout of a military-first approach: endless wars, global instability, and blatant neglect of pressing domestic issues. It’s time to rethink this broken approach.

This year, we could pour even more bombs and bullets into a world where violence is increasing by the second — unless activists like you speak up to demand something different.

Will you sign our petition right now urging President Biden to cut the Pentagon budget and instead focus on investing in our communities?

This moment marks the start of a legislative marathon to press the White House and Congress to reject the misguided notion that BILLIONS for weapons and war are the only way to keep us safe and help us thrive.

The President’s 2025 budget proposal is due in the weeks ahead, and that means the clock is ticking. To influence policymakers in the White House and make a real impact, the time to act is NOW.

Budgets are moral documents that should reflect our values and priorities. Can you call on President Biden to invest in human needs and cut the Pentagon budget now?

More weapons and war aren’t the way. Let’s raise our voices and make that loud and clear to the Biden Administration.
