Our pressure is working, friend.

The Trump administration announced yesterday that they pulled back the first 150 National Guard troops since deploying the soldiers in Los Angeles.

This is a win, but now, we need to keep up the momentum. Thousands of National Guard troops are still deployed in Los Angeles.

You know what a good way for them to celebrate July 4th would be? Sending the remaining troops to where they’re actually needed – or sending them home.

Heading into Independence Day weekend, we should be honoring our brave troops who signed up to defend and fight for our country. Instead, members of our National Guard are being used as pawns by this administration. They are being taken away from their jobs, their families, and their schools to guard office buildings.

If you agree that it’s time to send the remaining troops home, please add your name to my petition to help keep up the momentum:

Thank you for being a part of this,
