An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Block $10 Billion in Taxpayer Funding for Trump's Board of Peace

99 so far! Help us get to 100 signers!

Block the $10 billion in taxpayer funding for Trump's proposed Board of Peace. Congress controls federal spending, and this is exactly the kind of waste and abuse that demands your opposition. Trump has appointed himself lifetime chair with total and complete authority over this Board. He has final authority over the meaning and interpretation of the charter, meaning every financial decision requires his explicit approval. This gives him unprecedented control over billions in taxpayer money with zero accountability. The Board's structure is a grift disguised as diplomacy. Trump is pledging $10 billion of our money, with $1 billion buying permanent membership and smaller amounts securing three-year appointments. According to The Intercept's analysis, every member state has been rebuked for human rights violations by either Marco Rubio's State Department or before the 2025 whitewash of department reports. This isn't about peace. It's about funneling taxpayer dollars into a structure Trump personally controls, staffed by human rights abusers and warmongers. Use your constitutional power of the purse to deny any funding for this scheme.
