    <li>Move money from the Pentagon to our communities</li>
    <li>Hands off Social Security</li>
</ul>
<p style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, Helvetica, Arial;">Tell our Senators that it is unacceptable to make our armed forces, their families, and their friends wait any longer to bring the troops home from Afghanistan.</p>
<p style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, Helvetica, Arial;">Demand that the hundreds of billions of dollars pouring into the coffers of war profiteers be redirected where it's needed—to create jobs, save jobs, and sustain the public services we need.</p>
<p style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, Helvetica, Arial;">Social Security is the cornerstone of a just and fair society. No one can afford to be without it.</p>
