Rather than tackling the #ClimateCrisis, the US wastes $740 billion a year on the Pentagon. The more money we spend on weapons & war, the more our planet & ALL living things suffer. We need to #DivestFromWar & #MovetheMoneyTo a #GreenNewDeal! #WarIsNotGreen #PupsForPeace
As many of us desperately await our #StimulusCheck, just remember that mega corporations, including weapons manufacturers, are still getting a cushy $500 billion bailout.

We need to #DivestFromWar & #MovetheMoneyTo food and housing assistance for the people! #PeopleOverProfit
