Oppose Trump's Escalation in Syria
Escalating the U.S. war in Syria with missile attacks will not stop the killings, but will lead to more deaths and suffering for Syrian civilians. The U.S. should fully support the ongoing investigation of the chemical weapons attack and work with the international community to bring the perpetrators to justice.
I oppose this escalation of war in Syria. Please speak out against President Trump's escalation of the U.S. war in Syria and insist Congress vote on whether to authorize further military action.

Why is this important?
More bombs won't end the crisis in Syria. After more than six years of war in Syria, with millions displaced and a death toll of nearly half a million people, it’s clear that there is no military solution to this crisis. But for years the U.S. has bombed Syria, and on April 6, the U.S. expanded the war by bombing a Syrian government airbase.
This week's abhorrent chemical weapons attack was an act of unspeakable violence against civilians, and we are heartbroken over the deaths of Syrians, including many children. The Trump administration’s escalation is not the solution, and will only cause more killing and suffering for Syrian civilians.
