We have an immediate and urgent opportunity to stop the sale of $1.15 billion in arms to Saudi Arabia and encourage the US government to do all it can to address the humanitarian crisis and bring about a peaceful, diplomatic end to the war the Saudis and their allies are waging in Yemen.

Please spread the word and:

- Call the Capitol Switchboard: 1-855-68-NOWAR
(1-855-686-6927)

Urge both of your senators to join Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) and Rand Paul (R-KY) in voting for Senate Joint Resolution 39 to block the sale of more arms to Saudi Arabia.

- Join the thunderclap (http://click.actionnetwork.org/mpss/c/3gA/ni0YAA/t.20l/-t55681LQDOvvUDccJkXlA/h2/fUHcWC0Z-2BExdJVwzFa837ER3AWGE6CVei-2F31ZJAmh-2BzN7Er-2BCl8mpkTR-2FQVnkTa-2FTKVdTuJv7-2B3tINDBcnQQw9vKknHhslTSGiwKBsx-2BlJv-2FtUTGiCsJe2WYky1PXJi3Hj4PkgYm5P5ft4bjMhLTdtJaf6d7 W4N5k80CUOyWAQBZpQb2kGHzmd3RlhK9-2BP-2BGuoD0DErgdmwjaVOD6vIJ6jFxS-2B0bIGlyS5uTUIZsYCCG-2Bywppl86UyvdVFqZuQeqRA-2FNLaBm5ttCWc51ZB-2F-2BEW1r5wD4n6kk-2B0GtSiewTHcRvXZKQCS0hJ4jojKjAu5znvDkXrjNKyJP6T5np OyQsLyR9sgjpL2mlYrOPpkNcL79xkXXtBwKBJM08oIDFWlpjMj ovKPciUg-2BO-2B24ZBXaLINQytVdRQ3gHi3cx-2B8D3e3lvOKdGnhbvfeiRCK40FGHm1uee0Fp-2FSSFJVg7ZUYWY-2Fk1B63IT4gU2bk2R-2BhIQ9M-3D):
