Maine Defend The Guard Hearing March 20th. ACT TODAY!!!!!!
Take action and tell the Maine Joint Veterans and Legal Affairs Committee to pass "Defend The Guard."
Defend The Guard legislation requires a declaration of war from Congress before Maine National Guard troops are called into federal service for combat in foreign nations. This simple piece of legislation supports the most crucial and somber power identified in the US Constititon....that Congress has the authority to declare war.
For 80 years, presidents of both parties have committed American lives and treasure to endless and undeclared wars. Congress has abdicated their power and authority...the power and authority that 'we the people' grant to them. They have allowed presidents to send our sons and daughters to fight in faraway lands with no definition of victory and no clear mission.
The Constitution was written in such a way that this was not supposed to happen. The Founding Fathers labored over the question of war and peace more than any other enumerated power they scripted in the Constituion.
The Maine Joint Veterans and Legal Affairs Commitee will hold a hearing on March 20th. They will hear from the primary bill sponsor and concerned Maine citizens who can no longer watch this president or any other committ the American military and Maine sons and daughters serving the ME National Guard to another endless and undeclared war. We must encourage the committee members to vote and pass the Defend The Guard bill out of committee.
Take action now! Sign the petition. Send an email to the committee members. Make a brief phone call expressing your support. Send a video message. Share this effort on social media.
If you feel compelled, please attend the hearing and offer your testimony in support of the bill.
America is on the verge of WWIII with a commander-in-chief determined to march us headlong into a war that is not ours to fight.
Take action...any action.
Support Defend The Guard.
