Block Trump's Plan to Spend $200 Billion More on Illegal War

Donald Trump launched an illegal war with Iran without the approval of Congress. Now he wants $200 billion more to keep it going.

This war is already costing an estimated $1–2 billion every single day. That’s billions of taxpayer dollars burned daily while families struggle to afford rent, groceries, and healthcare. And Trump calls it a “small price to pay.”

Tell Congress: “Block any additional funding for Trump’s illegal war with Iran. Don’t give him a blank check for more wars.”

This war should never have happened. The Constitution gives Congress—not the president—the power to declare war. Lawmakers in both parties are warning that Trump bypassed that authority. If Congress funds this war, they’re endorsing an illegal escalation.

The danger is real. The war with Iran is already spiraling into a wider regional conflict, costing countless lives and destabilizing the global economy. Meanwhile, that same money could be lowering costs, expanding healthcare, and investing in clean energy—instead of fueling destruction.

Congress still has the power to stop this. They can cut off funding and force an end to this reckless war—but only if we demand it.

Add your name now. Tell Congress to block Trump’s $200 billion war plan, end this illegal conflict, and invest in people—not endless war.

The petition to Congress reads: “Block any additional funding for Trump’s illegal war with Iran. Don’t give him a blank check for more wars.”
