On Monday July 29th, at 5:30 pm ET, the Senate will be voting on the three resolutions to block Trump’s emergency arms sales to Saudi Arabia and the UAE. Trump vetoed the resolutions last week, the Senate needs two-thirds of the vote to override the veto.
The three resolutions make Trump’s third, fourth and fifth Vetoes this year. Earlier in the year he vetoed a bill that would have required him to withdraw troops from Yemen. Meaning four out of five of his vetoes this year have been used to continue the genocidal war on Yemen.
There is no lobby in Washington to defend the starving children of Yemen from the brutal bombing campaign and blockade on the country. It’s up to the American people to hound their representatives to put an end to this war.
Call your Senator and urge them to vote to override Trump’s veto on these resolutions.
Call them directly (see directory here) or call the United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121. A switchboard operator will connect you directly with the Senate office you request.
