Today’s Action: End the lethal strikes program!

In late June, 113 organizations around the world sent a joint letter to President Biden asking him to end the lethal strikes program outside of recognized battlefields, including through the use of drones. 

Amnesty International called the lethal strikes program "a centerpiece of the United States’ forever wars," one that "has exacted an appalling toll on Muslim, Brown, and Black communities in multiple parts of the world." They added, "Twenty years into a war-based approach that has undermined and violated fundamental rights, we urge you to abandon it and embrace an approach that advances our collective human security."

The 113 signatories are calling for an end to military force as a first resort, and divestment of those extraordinary defense funds to critical issues like climate change.

Write President Biden and tell him you stand behind the organizations calling for the end of the lethal strikes program, which has caused countless civilian deaths and unprecedented destruction abroad.

Biden has stated that he wants to end forever wars during his presidency. While lethal strikes have already significantly decreased, the organizations listed in the letter deserve our unwavering support in demanding a firm, permanent end to the lethal strikes program. 

The immediate use of force in areas with bystanders and critical infrastructure is more than inhumane and the threshold for what constitutes such military action must be raised immediately. The Biden administration’s focus should be on repairing our infrastructure, rebuilding our economy, and fighting against climate change — not turning more civilians into casualties of war.

Write President Biden and demand an outspoken promise to end the use of lethal strikes outside of recognized battlefields!

PS — Please don't forget to sign the petition holding Trump and Barr accountable for spying on journalists and House Democrats, and be sure to follow OD Action on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.
