Oppose Trump's Iran War That's Destroying Our Economy

I need you to publicly oppose President Trump's Iran war. This conflict is costing taxpayers $1 billion per day, has already destroyed 10,000 jobs, and economists are warning that recession odds are now high. Oil prices have surged more than 50 percent since the conflict began. The blockade of the Strait of Hormuz is forcing Asian countries to scramble for alternative energy sources while energy sector CEOs warn of dire consequences. Corporate leaders from Dow and Chevron are sounding alarms at industry conferences. This isn't sustainable. More than 60 corporate leaders have already signed a letter protesting administration policies, including CEOs from 3M, Best Buy, Target, and General Mills. Even Citadel's Ken Griffin calls the administration's favoritism "extremely distasteful." Business leaders know this war is reckless, and they're starting to say so publicly. Your constituents can't afford this war. Our economy can't afford it either. Stand with the business community and oppose these policies before the damage becomes irreversible.
