Ask Yourself:
Why are our taxpayer dollars contributing to suffering abroad?
Why are the places we call home being left out to dry?
Your Money Is Being Wasted.
$17.28 Billion
The U.S. shells out billions every year to fund brutal foreign wars. The Israeli government alone has received $17.28 billion this year.
As that money goes toward destroying the lives of millions abroad, our communities are being left neglected at home.
Congress should be fighting for the funding our communities need - not lining the pockets of foreign governments.
FOREIGN WARS ARE
A LOCAL ISSUE.
That $17.28 Billion alone could:
Provide 2,054,187 households with housing for a year.
Help 6,012,525 children receive free or low-cost healthcare.
Pay the salaries of 186,670 elementary school teachers.
Replace every damaged bridge in America in under a decade.
With infrastructure crumbling at home and services we need being defunded or eliminated outright, why are we sending $3.8 Billion+ overseas to fund someone else’s oppression?
Our communities shouldn’t be suffering for the sake of a foreign government’s occupation. It’s time U.S. taxpayer money actually be invested in our communities, not brutal militaries thousands of miles away.

Death On Your Dime
Pro-Peace Pledge aims to pressure elected officials to adopt a pro-peace agenda. We believe that foreign wars and the arms we ship abroad are a local issue - our tax dollars are better spent at home than on senseless and violent wars abroad.
