DESCRIPTION:Join CODEPINK in an Emergency Action to speak out against an unnecessary 
 war with Russia which could possibly lead to the use of nuclear weapons. If 
 the war starts before Feb. 1, this action will still take place, to speak 
 out against it.   \n\nWe are on the brink of a massive war between the US 
 and Russia—two nuclear-armed states. The time to speak out is now!  The 
 Russian people don't want war; the Ukrainian people don't want war. And we 
 don't want our soldiers to die in an unnecessary war with Russia!  
 President Biden has just ordered 8,500 US troops to be on heightened alert 
 for possible deployment to Eastern Europe, as the dangerous escalation at 
 the Russian/Ukrainian border standoff intensifies. Biden is also 
 considering sending more warships and aircraft, and has already delivered 
 more “lethal aid” to Ukraine. The $500 million Congress is set to pass 
 through a fast-track vote, could and should be used on communities and 
 climate. The Pentagon has said that there is the possibility of sending as 
 many as 50,000 troops!!!  \nWe are asking people to call the White House 
 Comment Line: (202) 456-1111 to urge diplomacy, not troops and weapons; 
 call Congress via Capitol Hill Switchboard (202) 224-3121 and urge them to 
 sign on to Barbara Lee and Pramila Jayapal's letter to President Biden, 
 urging the President not to send more troops and weapons to Eastern Europe 
 to risk war with Russia, and to NOT sign on to Congressman Meek's H.R. 6470 
 to further embroil the U.S. militarily but to introduce legislation 
 supporting a moratorium on NATO expansion."  \n  \n
