As the United States faced simultaneous wildfires, snow squalls, dust storms, and deadly tornadoes, the Senate responded by overwhelmingly approving a whopping $778 BILLION for weapons and war — the LARGEST peacetime war budget in history.
Weapons and war require massive amounts of fossil fuel — and not only is the Pentagon the world's single biggest institutional consumer of petroleum, it’s also a HUGE source of greenhouse gas, emitting more than 100 countries combined.
Continuing massive payouts to fund the Pentagon’s mega-polluting pet projects as multiple weather disasters rock our communities? The disconnect is as infuriating as it is mind-boggling.
That’s why Win Without War is ramping up our work to get our priorities back in order. We’ve got just a few critical weeks to pull out all the stops to keep the pressure on Congress to push them away from fueling the climate crisis with more weapons and war — can you fuel this fight with a donation today?
