Tell Congress: Stop War on Iran!

The Trump administration has launched unauthorized strikes on targets across Iran. Congress must act immediately to use every ounce of its influence and constitutional authority to prevent further violence and all-out war — one which a majority of Americans reject — on Iran. I demand you reconvene to pass a war powers resolution immediately.
Why is this important?
A horrific death toll across the Middle East is quickly rising as a result of illegal U.S.-Israeli attacks on Iran: Among those killed are nearly 150 people at a girls’ elementary school in Iran, three U.S. servicemembers, and at least nine people in the Israeli city of Beit Shemesh.
Trump upended promising diplomatic negotiations with missiles and fighter jets. The violence quickly spread across the region, with reports of strikes in Israel, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Kuwait, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and Bahrain.
Today, the bombs continue to fall, and hundreds of millions of people across the Middle East are terrified and directly in harm’s way. Congress cannot stay on the sidelines any longer.
We must do all we can to stop the violence immediately. The House and the Senate must pass war powers resolutions (WPR) to end this war before it spirals further. The stakes are perilous, but votes are already being planned. As lawmakers decide how to respond, they need to hear the demands of their constituents — our overwhelming anti-war majority — to vote YES on the WPR.
