Our tax dollars should be helping struggling Americans, not feeding new forever wars. 

According to a recent estimate, daily Iran war costs of $1 billion/day would be able to fully cover: Medicaid for all 16 million people expected to lose it as a result of GOP budget cuts, AND food stamps for all 41 million people who rely on them.

Across the country, people are beginning to ask a hard question: what does it mean to shop at a company that is cooperating with ICE and Border Patrol?

If legislators funded ICE and CBP at those levels for the current year, combined with funding from the Big Bad Bill, the annual budgets for those agencies would total $64.9 billion (assuming the Big Bad Bill funds are spent equally over the 51 months they’re available). That amounts to a 92 percent increase over the previous highest funding level for the agencies, which was $33.8 billion in FY 2019;  a 209 percent increase since FY 2024; and a 441 percent increase since the creation of ICE in FY 2002.
