"After 95 days of illegal war, Congress is finally enacting the will of the people, who overwhelmingly oppose President Trump’s disastrous war on Iran."

Our statement on the House's passage of a War Powers Resolution against Trump's Iran War today:

[Win Without War (winwithoutwar.bsky.social) @WinWithoutWar]

Common sense from @ChrisVanHollen: Condition arms sales to the Israeli government on following U.S. and international law, sanction settlers, and don’t let the decision-makers who enabled Gaza’s devastation back into power.

[Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen]

Democrats have provided reflexive & unconditional support to Netanyahu & Israeli governments, even as they undermined the values we claimed to stand for.

It's time to end taxpayer-funded support & condition arms sales to end the occupation & salvage a 2-state solution.

Thank you @JoaquinCastrotx & other members for breaking DC’s “taboo” over the Israeli gov’s nuclear weapons — especially concerning as US and Israeli leaders wage a disastrous war of choice in the Middle East.

[John Hudson @John_Hudson]

Scoop: More than two dozen House Democrats are pressing the Trump administration to publicly acknowledge Israel’s undeclared nuclear weapons program, a move that would abandon decades of U.S. policy but confirm what has been an open secret among intelligence officials since the late 1960s🧵

@Harrison_J_Mann More money is not the answer, more judicious spending is.

Tell Congress you want more money for healthcare, education, and housing, not lining the pockets of weapons makers. 👇

@harrison_j_mann isn’t mincing words: the Pentagon budget is a trillion dollar slush fund for defense contractors.

Donald Trump just asked Congress to make it $1.5 trillion.

[Win Without War (winwithoutwar.bsky.social) @WinWithoutWar]

Congress, follow @Harrison_J_Mann’s advice. If you want to stop Trump’s reckless and illegal war on Iran, don’t fund it.

You can send Congress the same message here 👇

@Harrison_J_Mann Mann warns that Hegseth’s appalling rhetoric on the war in Iran is a “comical reflection of something much darker, which is him trying to transform the military into a militia that is personally loyal to Trump.”

Impeach Pete Hegseth.

[Win Without War (winwithoutwar.bsky.social) @WinWithoutWar]

Our @harrison_j_mann joined CNN to discuss Pete Hegseth’s dangerous Christian nationalist vision for the U.S. military.
Hegseth is supposed to be protecting the American people, not using our military to enable a reckless authoritarian.

[Win Without War (winwithoutwar.bsky.social) @WinWithoutWar]

Thank you @RepYassAnsari.

Pete Hegseth can’t drag us into an unlawful war, commit likely war crimes, and remain Secretary of Defense. Congress must impeach.

[Congresswoman Yassamin Ansari @RepYassAnsari]

I’ve introduced Articles of Impeachment against Pete Hegseth for violating his oath, endangering U.S. servicemembers, and committing war crimes, including attacks on civilians and a girls’ school in Minab, Iran. Only Congress can declare war; his actions demand immediate removal.

[Congresswoman Yassamin Ansari @RepYassAnsari]

I’m introducing Articles of Impeachment against Pete Hegseth. Here’s why.

[Win Without War (winwithoutwar.bsky.social) @WinWithoutWar]

.@tedlieu is right. Trump is threatening to order our military to commit war crimes, and no one is above the law.

[Ted Lieu @tedlieu]

Dear @thejointstaff: The UCMJ and federal law prohibit war crimes.

Striking civilian infrastructure that causes disproportionate civilian harm constitutes war crimes.

You will disobey those illegal orders.

If you commit war crimes, the next Administration will prosecute you.

[Ted Lieu @tedlieu]

[Congresswoman Yassamin Ansari @RepYassAnsari]

In the midst of a catastrophic war and escalating repression in Iran, the Trump Administration is halting immigration processing and legal status pathways for Iranian nationals, including students and professionals already in the United States.

Because visa processing and immigration benefit applications are now frozen, many Iranians studying and working here could lose their legal status and be forced to return to a country where they may face serious danger.

I’m working on a series of actions to demand immediate protections for Iranians in the U.S., including safeguards for students and others whose lives would be at risk in Iran.

[Win Without War (winwithoutwar.bsky.social) @WinWithoutWar]

The heart of Trump’s political project: warfare over healthcare and daycare.

Not another dime for Trump’s illegal wars on Iran, in Latin America, and across the world.

https://t.co/G9yLt0k2ua

[FactPost @factpostnews]

Trump: We can't take care of daycare. We're a big country. We're fighting wars. It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these things.

[Win Without War (winwithoutwar.bsky.social) @WinWithoutWar]

Trump's speech tonight was the speech of a president who can't figure out what to do about the disastrous war he started.

Congress should choose for him: end this war before it becomes an even bigger catastrophe.

[Zeteo @zeteo_news]

“Trump’s own actions have made negotiating a peace nearly impossible in the immediate term.”

New Zeteo contributor and former intel analyst @Harrison_J_Mann breaks down three ways Trump can end the war in Iran.

[Rep. Jim McGovern @RepMcGovern]

We should all be terrified of the world this Administration is creating—a world where dictators, war criminals & billionaires rule supreme while working people get screwed & killed in reckless wars of choice.

[Congresswoman Yassamin Ansari @RepYassAnsari]

Trump’s reckless and illegal war has already had catastrophic impacts. This week, we honored the thousands of civilians killed across Iran, Lebanon, and the region, as well as more than half a dozen American servicemembers who have lost their lives.

We must do everything in our power to push for an off-ramp—one that ends this war, protects American servicemembers, safeguards civilians across the region, and creates a real pathway to democracy and self-determination for the people of Iran.

[MoveOn @MoveOn]

More of this. Thank you, @SenRubenGallego. At a time when so many people feel unheard, choosing to lead with principle matters.

[Win Without War (winwithoutwar.bsky.social) @WinWithoutWar]

Trump’s sycophants on the Hill can’t block this debate forever. Congress must pass a war powers resolution to end Trump’s illegal Iran war.

[Win Without War (winwithoutwar.bsky.social) @WinWithoutWar]

Last night, the Senate again had a chance to act on Trump’s unauthorized war in Iran.

It didn’t. But @SenBooker, @TimKaine, @ChrisMurphyCT, @SenAdamSchiff, @SenDuckworth, and @TammyBaldwin again brought a war powers resolution to the floor.

Why?

[Win Without War (winwithoutwar.bsky.social) @WinWithoutWar]

Some lawmakers may not have made up their minds about ending this already disastrous war.

But every member of Congress has to answer: Will you sit back as Trump’s war causes more death, more escalation, and higher costs for everyone else?
