Peace cannot stand without Justice by its side.
Ending Imperialism
Eliminating funding to wasteful weapons/defense contracts and appropriating funding to the costly decommissioning of our massive nuclear arsenal, as well as divesting and/or repurposing resources from foreign military operations around the globe, to benefit the communities our military-industrial complex has terrorized for decades.
Defense and Peace Domestic & International
Using currently installed military equipment and personnel to help rebuild infrastructure, both domestically and abroad, shifting resources from an ‘offensive’ (pun intended) military approach, to a peace oriented one, and investing in economic olive branches instead of saber rattling, sanctions, etc.
Criminal Justice & Policing Reform
Abolishing private prisons while adequately funding their public counterparts to provide education/training and rehabilitation opportunities. Ending the criminalization of poverty, beginning with radical drug law and petty crime reforms, and demilitarizing/defunding police forces, while diverting ample resources to “non-aggressive” crisis response outlets and community programs.
