Tell President Obama and Congress--​Jobs Not Wars

On Election Day, we sent a message. Protect Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. End the wars and reinvest in our communities.
 
The wars and tax breaks for the rich and corporations got us into this mess. Move the money from wars and weapons to fund jobs and human services and make the rich pay their fair share of taxes.

Sign the Jobs not Wars Petition.

One of the best ways to reduce the deficit is to put people back to work. It’s time to invest in our people and our communities to create stable jobs at living wages, rehabilitate our nation’s infrastructure and programs that serve the needs of people and communities, and develop a sustainable economy that protects the planet for future generations.

We want the war in Afghanistan to end and substantial cuts to be made to runaway Pentagon spending. 
 
Sign the Jobs not Wars Petition.

Over 80 organizations are gathering signatures to remind Congress and the Obama administration we need to fundamentally change Federal budget priorities from wars and ever more deadly weapons to jobs and meeting the needs of our communities.

We will present the Jobs Not Wars Petition to Congress & President Obama around the time of the Inauguration. 
 
Forward this email. Ask your friends and family to join you in signing the Jobs Not Wars Petition. Post this link http://bit.ly/jobs-not-wars-PA on your Facebook page and Tweet it to your social network. There is strength in numbers.

Don’t let our elected officials forget what we voted for. Time to change federal spending priorities from the “military industrial complex” to reinvest in our communities.
 
Humbly for Peace,
Kevin Martin
Executive Director
