$1.2 Trillion? Really?

Imagine what that money could do for actual people.

Donald Trump’s proposed “Golden Dome” missile defense system was just estimated to cost $1.2 trillion over the next 20 years.

Not million. Not billion. Trillion.

And remember, Trump originally claimed it would cost around $175 billion.

Now the real estimate is nearly seven times higher.

If you believe working families deserve investment before defense contractors do, I’m asking you to support this campaign today.

Here’s what I keep thinking about.

Imagine what $1.2 trillion could actually do for the American people.

1. Affordable childcare for families struggling to stay afloat.

2. Housing construction on a massive scale.

3. Lower healthcare costs.

4. Expanded mental health services.

5. Better schools.

6. Cleaner communities.

7. Real investments in the lives people are actually living every day.

Instead, we’re talking about pouring another mountain of money into military contractors while millions of Americans can barely afford groceries and rent.

That’s ridiculous.

If you’re tired of watching politicians find endless money for war and weapons while ordinary people are told to “tighten their belts,” I need you with me in this fight.

People are exhausted.

❌They’re exhausted by the rising cost of living.
❌Exhausted by economic instability.
❌Exhausted by politicians who seem more interested in futuristic military projects than whether families can survive another month.

Leadership should be grounded in people’s real lives.

• Can they afford housing?

• Can they afford healthcare?

• Can they raise a family without constant financial anxiety?

That’s what should matter. That’s what matters to me.

If you believe government should be focused on improving people’s lives instead of feeding endless corporate contracts, I’m asking you to step up and support this campaign today.

We can build a stronger future without losing sight of the people we’re supposed to serve.

Standing with you,
Antonio Villaraigosa
Candidate for Governor
