051926 Reject Trump’s $1.5 trillion “war first, people last” budget(Common Cause)
Trump said: “It’s not possible for us to take care of day care, Medicaid, Medicare, all these individual things... We have to take care of one thing: military protection.”
And his proposed budget backs that up: he’s asking Congress to slash $83 billion from your healthcare, education, and clean energy while pouring $1.5 trillion into the military to fuel his illegal Iran war.
There’s always money for war. But when it comes to people’s actual priorities, like lowering costs, good schools, or healthcare? Trump says it’s “not possible.”
We need to make it clear to our members of Congress: Trump’s extreme budget must be dead on arrival. Every dollar funneled into this war is a dollar ripped out of your hands – but only if our lawmakers allow it.
Sign Common Cause’s petition: Not one more taxpayer dollar for Trump’s war of choice. Congress must reject Trump’s $1.5 trillion war budget and put working people first.
