Hi,

In response to Trump’s plan to accept a $400 million “free” jet from
Qatar, Senator Chris Murphy is forcing a vote on arms sales to Qatar and
the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Both countries are trying to influence the
White House with gifts to Trump and favorable treatment of Trump family
businesses.^1

The unprecedented move to accept the Qatari jet without congressional
approval is plainly unconstitutional.^2

The U.S. Senate has a responsibility to end all corrupt dealings between
Trump, his family, and foreign governments. Blocking arm sales to
countries cozying up to Trump is a critical step towards stemming this
corruption.

Qatar’s “palace in the sky” gift, and Trump deciding to use it for Air
Force One, raises serious ethical and security concerns. Sen. Murphy said,
“Donald Trump is selling off America’s foreign policy and national
security to the highest bidder and isn’t even bothering to cover it up.”^3

Sen. Murphy’s planned vote targets UAE too because of UAE’s $2 billion
investment in Trump’s cryptocurrency venture.^4

Trump’s blatant defiance of the rule of law, again, and his entanglements
with foreign governments are a threat to our democracy. The Senate needs
to stop weapons sales to Qatar and UAE in response to this corruption.

governments — back Sen. Murphy’s vote now!
