We reject the idea that American lives should be placed in harm’s way without a compelling national purpose and constitutional authority.
Our military exists to defend the nation and its people.
Our soldiers are not political instruments.
War should never become an automatic response to political disagreement, economic interests, foreign pressure, or the ambitions of people who will never personally bear its cost.
Before another American is sent into battle, those making that decision should remember that they are sending someone’s son, daughter, husband, wife, father, mother, brother, or sister.
War is not a talking point. Human lives are not political currency.
If you stand with these words, share them!
