One thing
Pramila has been working on since coming to Congress is cutting the
excessive, bloated military budget.

Military spending has gotten completely out of control, and it only
benefits weapons manufacturers and defense contractors. Last year,
Congress even increased defense spending to an amount more than Donald
Trump’s last military budget. That is completely upside down.

Last week, Pramila introduced a resolution in the House to cut military
waste, stop selling weapons to international human rights abusers, and
focus our foreign policy on diplomacy instead of a constant over-reliance
on military force.

cut excessive military spending and focus our international relations on
peace and diplomacy instead of war.

Our country must redefine and reimagine what it means to be strong. Being
strong is NOT giving more money to a bloated Pentagon budget that is
already larger than the following 11 countries’ military budgets combined.
That’s why Pramila has championed a 10% cut to military spending and voted
NO on last year’s defense budget.

We can strengthen our country by focusing foreign policy on peacebuilding
and use a slashed military budget to put money towards guaranteeing health
care for all, raising wages, investing in child care and education,
fighting for our unions and labor protections, and so much more.

The resolution is wide-ranging, recognizing the global security challenges
of a new nuclear arms race and instability from climate disasters. It aims
to stem violent conflict spurred by U.S. military intervention and weapons
sales to oppressive regimes.

Our fight for peace and transformative change is only as powerful as our
grassroots movement. And we need to let Congress know there’s a wave of
support behind cutting a bloated Pentagon budget and focusing on
international diplomacy. [ [link removed] ]Sign on now to be a citizen co-sponsor of
Pramila's resolution to change the way we approach foreign policy and end
excessive military spending.
