Hunter -

When we talk to members of Congress, they often ask why stopping this military parade is such a big deal to us. They wonder if people in their states and districts are really that fired up about this issue.

We tell them the answer is YES. Yes we are. Because this parade is not about honoring our military -- it's about using our military to honor Trump, a man who dishonors America and puts our country at risk.

We recently learned about the personnel and financial cost of the parade, and it's as bad as you'd imagine:

* 5,000 to 7,000 individuals marching
* 100 vehicles down Pennsylvania Avenue
* "a heavy air component at the end of the parade"
* A cost of $12 million

This parade would be a national embarrassment all conjured up to serve a weak president's frail self-image. To use some of our nation's best and brightest for the task... it's a disgrace. Make your voice heard.

Sign VoteVets petition: Tell your member of Congress you STRONGLY OPPOSE Trump's military parade. We'll make sure they get your message about this national embarrassment.

There are far better uses for the funds, personnel and equipment being wasted on this event. This parade is a disgrace, and it must be stopped.

All my best,
