Sign on to support the Call to Cut Military Spending
to Address the Climate Crisis and Fund Vital Domestic Needs

Congress proposes to spend $886 billion next year on the Pentagon budget, an increase of $44 billion over the already bloated 2023 military budget – more than either President Biden or the Pentagon requested.

• I support Congresswoman Barbara Lee’s bill [H.R. 1134] – “The People Over Pentagon Act of 2023”, which would cut the Pentagon budget by $100 billion. This money is needed to meet the challenge of the climate crisis by making a just transition to a sustainable renewable energy economy and to fund urgent domestic priorities, including strengthening our social safety net to protect working people and the poor.
