End US Aid to Israel
As TAX DAY approaches there is new data that can be used in the ongoing campaign to end US military aid to Israel. A new web site shows that San Jose's share of the $30 billion 10 year aid package signed by Obama in 2009 is $212,164,226.
This money could have been spent instead to:
- Provide 2,576 households per year w/affordable housing grants OR
- Provide 3,522 job seekers per year w/green jobs training OR
- Provide 6,273 children per year w/early reading education OR
- Provide 171,821 people per year w/primary health care.
