Una donna con le palle! Non ha votato a favore del bilancio militare di Trump! Brava! Hai il mio appoggio e stima!
A woman with balls! Good for you! You have my support and my admiration!

Dear Senator Gillibrand,
I'm happy that I didn't see your name, among those who voted for Pr. Trump's military budget. WELL DONE! You'll have my vote in November!
I REALIZE THAT THE US NEEDS TO HAVE A STRONG DEFENSE, HOWEVER $717 BILLION IS WAY TOO MUCH, WHEN OUR COUNTRY AND THE WORLD HAS BIGGER NEEDS; agreeing w/other nuclear countries to REDUCE NUCLEAR WEAPONS, POLLUTION, HELPING the MILLIONS OF PEOPLE FLEEING THEIR HOMES/COUNTRIES; BECAUSE OF WARS, PERSECUTION, DROUGHTS and FAMINE (right now in Syria and many North African nations, over 10 million people, are facing a humanitarian disaster because of these wars).
Senator, I hope that you WILL SPEND OUR TAX MONEY ON BUILDING OUR NATION AND MAKING THE WORLD BETTER; LIKE ECONOMIC PROSPERITY (not for the war industry/machines/weapons), but for RENEWABLE ENERGIES, REBUILDING INFRASTRUCTURE, like roads, hospitals, schools, rail systems and/or lines/trains (by the way, the US's rail system is antiquated (very old) compared to many countries (e.g. Europe and Asia), KEEPING SOC
IAL SECURITY SAFE and and HEALTH CARE FOR EVERYONE!
Thank you!



  Il senatore Schumer si allea con Trump e vota per il budget piu' grasso del mondo! Deludente. Faremo i conti a Novembre!
Senator Schumer allies himself with Trump and approves his $717 billion dollar military budget! Disappointing! We'll get even in November!

 Dear Senator Schumer,
I'm very disappointed seeing your name, among those who voted for Pr. Trump's military budget. I'm sorry to tell you, however, I must be honest with you: I will not vote for you in November!
I REALIZE THAT THE US NEEDS TO HAVE A STRONG DEFENSE, HOWEVER $717 BILLION IS WAY TOO MUCH, WHEN OUR COUNTRY AND THE WORLD HAS BIGGER NEEDS; agreeing w/other nuclear countries to REDUCE NUCLEAR WEAPONS, POLLUTION, HELPING the MILLIONS OF PEOPLE FLEEING THEIR HOMES/COUNTRIES; BECAUSE OF WARS, PERSECUTION, DROUGHTS and FAMINE (right now in Syria and many North African nations, over 10 million people, are facing a humanitarian disaster because of these wars- and the USA is also responsible for this crisis).
Senator, it is my hope that from now on you WILL defend the cause of the poor and the working class, by SPENDING OUR TAX MONEY ON BUILDING OUR NATION AND MAKING THE WORLD BETTER. Your priority should be ECONOMIC PROSPERITY (not for the war industry/machines/weapons), but for RENEWABLE ENERGIES, REBUILDING INFRASTRUCTURE, like roads, hospitals, schools, rail systems and/or lines/trains (by the way, the US's rail system is antiquated (very old) compared to many countries (e.g. Europe and Asia), KEEPING SOCIAL SECURITY SAFE and HEALTH CARE FOR EVERYONE!
Thank you!



I don't know how congrssman Tonko voted on this issue. I hope he didn't the right thing and didn't vote for it.
Non so' come il debutato Tonko ha votato su questo bilancio. Spero che abbia fatto la cosa giusta.

Dear Mr. Tonko,
I hope that  you aren't among those who voted for Pr. Trump's military budget. If you didn't vote for it, WELL DONE! You'll have my vote in November!
I REALIZE THAT THE US NEEDS TO HAVE A STRONG DEFENSE, HOWEVER $717 BILLION IS WAY TOO MUCH, WHEN OUR COUNTRY AND THE WORLD HAS BIGGER NEEDS; agreeing w/other nuclear countries to REDUCE NUCLEAR WEAPONS, POLLUTION, HELPING the MILLIONS OF PEOPLE FLEEING THEIR HOMES/COUNTRIES; BECAUSE OF WARS, PERSECUTION, DROUGHTS and FAMINE (right now in Syria and many North African nations, over 10 million people, are facing a humanitarian disaster because of these wars- and the USA is partly responsible!)


It is my fervent hope that you WILL do your best in SPENDING OUR TAX MONEY ON BUILDING OUR NATION AND MAKING THE WORLD BETTER; LIKE ECONOMIC PROSPERITY (not for the war industry/machines/weapons), but for RENEWABLE ENERGIES, REBUILDING INFRASTRUCTURE, like roads, hospitals, schools, rail systems and/or lines/trains (by the way, the US's rail system is antiquated (very old) compared to many countries (e.g. Europe and Asia), KEEPING SOCIAL SECURITY SAFE and and HEALTH CARE FOR EVERYONE!
Thank you!

So, WE MUST REMEMBER these DEMOCRATIC SENATORS who VOTED WITH TRUMP ON THE FATTEST MILITARY BUDGET EVER! THIS NOVEMBER I WILL NOT VOTE for my NY State Senator Chuck Schumer! I hope that you too will VOTE FOR SOMEONE ELSE WHO WILL SPEND OUR TAX MONEY ON BUILDING OUR NATION AND MAKING THE WORLD BETTER; LIKE ECONOMIC PROSPERITY (not for the war industry/machines/weapons), but for RENEWABLE ENERGIES, REBUILDING INFRASTRUCTURE, like roads, hospitals, schools, rail systems and/or lines/trains (by the way, the US's rail system is antiquated (very old) compared to many countries (e.g. Europe and Asia). And will also KEEP SOCIAL SECURITY SAFE and and will work to provide HEALTH CARE FOR EVERYONE, especially the poor and the working class!

CAPISCO CHE GLI STATI UNITI HANNO BISOGNO DI UNA DIFESA FORTE, TUTTAVIA 
$717 MILIARDI DI DOLLARI È TROPPO. QUANDO IL NOSTRO PAESE E IL MONDO HANNO MAGGIORI ESIGENZE, come per esempio; concordare con altri paesi nucleari di RIDURRE LE ARMI NUCLEARI, ridurre L'INQUINAMENTO, AIUTARE MILIONI DI PERSONE CHE FUGGONO DALLE LORO CASE e dai loro PAESI A CAUSA DI GUERRE, PERSECUZIONI, SICCITA' E FAME. Infatti, propio ora in Siria e in tante altre nazioni del Nord Africa, oltre 10 milioni di persone, sI trovano d'avanti a un disastro umanitario a causa di queste guerre.
Quindi, noi cittadini USA, DOBBIAMO RICORDARE questi SENATORI DEMOCRATICI che hanno VOTATO CON TRUMP per un BILANCIO MILITARE PIÙ GRASSO del mondo!! QUESTO NOVEMBRE IO NON VOTERO' per il mio senatore dello stato di New York, Chuck Schumer! Spero che anche VOI VOTERERETE PER QUALCUNO ALTRO CHE SPENDERA' i nostri sacrifici, le nostre tasse/contributi fiscali PER COSTRUIRE LA NOSTRA NAZIONE E IL MONDO; COME la PROSPERITÀ ECONOMICA (non per ingrassare l'industria bellica con le sue armi di morte), ma per LENERGIA RINNOVABILE, L'INFRASTRUTTURA del paese, come strade, ospedali, scuole, sistemi ferroviari (a proposito, il sistema ferroviario degli Stati Uniti è antiquato, e' molto vecchio rispetto a molti paesi, come l'Europa e 'lAsia. E infine lavorera' per PROTEGGERE il Social Security, LA PENSIONI DI VECCHIAIA, e lavorera' per GUARANTIRE L'ASSISTENZA MEDICA PER TUTTI i cittadini USA, specialmente i poveri e i lavoratori.


In basso, il titolo dell'immagine: COME I VOSTRI SENATORI DEMOCRATICI HANNO VOTATO SUL BILANCIO MILITARE DEL 2019, DI $717 MILIARDI - UN'INCREMENTO DI $83 MILIARDI di dollari da quello del 2017, e che e' approvato molto presto, il piu' rapido in 47 anni!   I verdi hanno votato si e i rossi con la crocetta hanno votato no.

Letter emailed to the Schenectday's Daily Gazette
This February many democratic senators in Congress voted for the 2019 military budget of $ 717 BILLION - an increase of $ 83 BILLION from the 2017 budget. In addition, the 2019 budget was quickly approved, the fastest in the last in 47 years! Senator Schumer is one of the many "corporate" democratic senators who voted for it.

I realize that the US needs a strong defense, however,  $717 BILLION is way too much! When our country and the world have BIGGER NEEDS, like agreeing w/other nuclear countries to REDUCE NUCLEAR WEAPONS, POLLUTION, HELPING the MILLIONS OF PEOPLE FLEEING THEIR HOMES/COUNTRIES; BECAUSE OF WARS, PERSECUTION, DROUGHTS and FAMINE. Right now in Syria and in many North African nations, over 10 million people, are facing a humanitarian disaster because of these wars.

I believe that our tax dollars could be better spent  ON BUILDING OUR NATION AND MAKING THE WORLD BETTER. Because not enough is being spent ON ECONOMIC PROSPERITY (not the war industry/machines/weapons), on RENEWABLE ENERGIES and REBUILDING INFRASTRUCTURE, like roads, hospitals, schools, rail systems and/or lines/trains. By the way, the US's rail system is antiquated compared to many countries (e.g. Europe and Asia), and of course billions should be spent on KEEPING SOCIAL SECURITY and the ENVIRONMENT SAFE, and last, but not least, our government should work and provide HEALTH CARE FOR EVERYONE, as they do in many other countries!
These social priorities would make America great again. It's not the war business that will make the world safer! It's simple; more weapons = more wars, more destruction, more suffering, more poverty and more death!


LETTER EMAILED TO THE ALBANY TIMES UNION
Dear Senator Gillibrand,
I'm happy that I didn't see your name, among those who voted for Pr. Trump's 2019 military budget. WELL DONE! You'll have my vote in November!

I REALIZE THAT THE US NEEDS TO HAVE A STRONG DEFENSE, HOWEVER $717 BILLION IS WAY TOO MUCH, WHEN OUR COUNTRY AND THE WORLD HAS BIGGER NEEDS, like agreeing w/other nuclear countries to REDUCE NUCLEAR WEAPONS, reducing POLLUTION, HELPING the MILLIONS OF PEOPLE FLEEING THEIR HOMES/COUNTRIES; BECAUSE OF WARS, PERSECUTION, DROUGHTS and FAMINE.
In fact, as you read this, right now in Syria and many North African nations, over 10 million people, are facing a humanitarian disaster because of these wars-- and unfortunately, the US is partly responsible.
Senator, I hope that you WILL keep on SPENDING OUR TAX MONEY ON BUILDING OUR NATION AND MAKING THE WORLD BETTER; LIKE ECONOMIC PROSPERITY (not for the war industry/machines/weapons), in RENEWABLE ENERGIES, in REBUILDING INFRASTRUCTURE, like roads, hospitals, schools, rail systems and/or lines/trains (by the way, the US's rail system is antiquated (very old) compared to many countries (e.g. Europe and Asia), and in KEEPING the ENVIRONMENT and SOCIAL SECURITY SAFE, and last but not least work for and approve HEALTH CARE FOR EVERYONE, especially the poor and the middle class!
Thank you! You'll surely get my vote in November!
