Trump has launched unauthorized military strikes on Iran, dragging the United States into yet another war without approval from Congress.
This reckless escalation is putting U.S. servicemembers, Americans, and Iranian civilians in danger all to advance a unilateral regime-change agenda that the American people never asked for and do not support.
The American public does not want another endless war in the Middle East. Congress has a constitutional obligation to assert its war powers immediately and block any further military action. The Constitution is clear: Congress, NOT the president, holds the power to declare war and to approve or disapprove sustained military engagement.
That authority is a duty.
Members of Congress must use every lever in their toolbox. From immediate oversight, to forcing a vote on a War Powers Resolution, to restricting or cutting off funding for unauthorized hostilities, to holding this administration accountable and putting an immediate stop to this war. We need to let Congress know we won’t accept anything less.
Dear Senator/Representative,
I am writing to demand immediate action in response to President Trump’s unauthorized military strikes on Iran.
Congress holds the power to declare war, not the president. Yet the administration has launched the US into armed conflict without congressional authorization, putting our servicemembers, American civilians, and Iranian civilians in danger.
The American people do not want another endless war in the Middle East. We have seen the human, moral, and financial costs of unilateral regime-change wars. We cannot allow history to repeat itself.
You have both the authority and the responsibility to act. I urge you to:
- Publicly call for an immediate halt to further military action.
- Expedite, support, and advance a War Powers Resolution to require congressional approval for continued hostilities.
- Oppose any funding for unauthorized military escalation.
- Demand full transparency and accountability from the administration.
Will you uphold your constitutional duty and use every lever available to rein in this administration and prevent further escalation?
I look forward to your response and to seeing you act with urgency.
