Trump promised to end endless wars—now he's bombing Yemen without Congressional approval. I stood up when Biden did it, and I’ll stand up now. I passed with @SenSanders & @MikeLeeforUtah a historic War Powers Resolution on Yemen in 2019. No president is above the Constitution.
10 years ago this week, the US began supporting the Saudi-Emirati-led coalition in bombing Yemen, creating a humanitarian crisis. Saudis stopped April 1, 2022. Now, exactly 10 years after the US-backed war on Yemen began, the U.S. is back at it, bombing directly. #YemenCantWait
There is no military solution to the crisis in the Middle East. Civilians are paying the price. The unconstitutional attacks by the U.S. on Yemen must stop. 🛑 #CeasefireNOW Congress, reclaim your #WarPowers before it’s too late. ��
Thank you @RepSummerLee for signing this letter to the @POTUS reminding him of Congress’ constitutional #WarPowers. Congress has not authorized U.S. bombing of Yemen, troops for genocide in Gaza, assistance with war on Lebanon, or war with Iran! Thanks for putting people first!
.@RepRashida listened to her Michigan constituents we connected her w/ – Jewish, Christian, Muslim – who asked her to lead this letter. Appreciate these lawmakers' courage – and that of @SenRandPaul, @RepThomasMassie and others who call for respect of Congress' #WarPowers.
Our team in Vermont helped push Senator Sanders to introduce the Joint Resolutions of Disapproval. Now it’s your turn—add your voice to get your senators on board and help stop the U.S. from fueling war.

📧 WE NEED YOUR HELP. Tell your senators to stop the U.S. from fueling war in Palestine, Lebanon, Iran, and Yemen. With violence escalating and U.S. troops being deployed to Israel, we must reclaim Congress’s power over war decisions. Every voice counts! https://t.co/5cdzTN9gsJ
We are 1 of more than 100 U.S. organizations calling for restoration of U.S. funding for the UN Relief and Works Agency which provides humanitarian assistance to Palestinians. #fundUNRWA

Israel is using US weapons to kill civilians, break the law, and restrict humanitarian aid in Gaza.
US law and policy are clear: the US must stop arming Israel.
We joined @CivCenter@OxfamAmerica +more (25 orgs) on this letter to @POTUS: https://t.co/0mFhvjJwPI #NotAnotherBomb

NEWS: 19 NGOs, incl Action Corps, @ActionAid@CARE@NRC_Norway@OxfamAmerica have called on the 5 permanent and 10 elected members of the UN Security Council to enforce the International Court of Justice’s orders for Israel to immediately halt military ops in Rafah. @SenSchumer👇🏽
We agree with Sen. Patrick Leahy: @SecBlinken & @SecDef should hold Israel to the same standard as other countries and apply the #LeahyLaw consistently. No country is above the law. https://t.co/JCPINKykeo
