Prohibits state National Guard units being deployed into active combat without formal declaration of war by Congress, as provided by the U.S. Constitution.

This year we’ve written you about all sorts of global crises. Tonight we share a wish for YOU:

May you be at peace.
May you feel love.
May you see the light.

From here on out the days get longer, and the light returns. ☀️

Help us spread the light — https://t.co/QaQrcTBbnH

Thanks, @TimH_B! Folks can join Action Corps at https://t.co/lmnynWsuiV to help stop the genocide in Gaza and more.

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.

[Action Corps @theactioncorps]

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

[Action Corps California @ActionCorpsCA]

Thank you @RoKhanna for speaking out for a War Powers Resolution to stop the unconstitutional U.S. attacks on Yemen. #HandsOffYemen

[Action Corps Massachusetts @ActionCorpsMA]

We encourage @SenMarkey and @SenWarren and the rest of our congressional delegation including @RepMcGovern @RepPressley and colleagues to stand up for the will of the American people, the Constitution, and their congressional #WarPowers.

Too bad @SenJackReed and @SenWhitehouse voted against humanity and US law last night. No famine while they feast. #RIpoli

[Action Corps @theactioncorps]

In August, @ActionCorpsVT and allies secured a commitment from @SenSanders to introduce the JRDs.

Last night 19 U.S. Senators made history by voting to restrict offensive weapons to the Israeli government while it starves Gaza.

@iefrantz’s statement on the historic vote in a🧵.

[Action Corps RI @ActionCorpsRI]

Our senators should join this resolution too

[Action Corps Massachusetts @ActionCorpsMA]

Our @SenWarren has joined @SenSanders @SenPeterWelch @JeffMerkley @SenBrianSchatz @SenTimKaine in opposing illegal transfers of weapons to the Israeli government while it starves Gaza. @SenMarkey should join his colleagues on this bill in standing with humanity. #mapoli

[Action Corps @theactioncorps]

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

[Action Corps Massachusetts @ActionCorpsMA]

.@WilliamHartung of @QuincyInst: “Not only does Raytheon rip off the government on a regular basis, but its weapons have been used to kill civilians in Yemen, Gaza, and other war zones.”

[Action Corps @theactioncorps]

Action Corps just completed 3 days of training on congressional advocacy for global justice, U.S. foreign policy change, and community organizing. We are ready to meet with congressional offices on Capitol Hill and back home in our states! 🕊️

[Action Corps @theactioncorps]

Join us for a hybrid talk this Wednesday 9/18/24 at 7p ET in Brattleboro VT to hear the inspiring story of how Yemeni Americans and other American peace activists achieved a victory for peace in a divided Congress. 🕊️ #VTpoli #YemenCantWait #CeasefireNOW https://t.co/TDl67VDnbn

[Action Corps RI @ActionCorpsRI]

Our Rhode Island U.S. senators must introduce and support Joint Resolutions of Disapproval to stop arming a government that is blocking humanitarian assistance. The U.S. is violating its own policy on this. @SenJackReed @SenWhitehouse

[Kenneth Roth @KenRoth]

As Netanyahu denies his starvation strategy, "more than 1 million people in Gaza will not have enough food this month, while trucks loaded with fresh vegetables or meat spoil waiting to cross Israeli checkpoints." https://t.co/XZzWXnQ0Do

[Action Corps RI @ActionCorpsRI]

Excellent work, fellow New Englanders!

[Action Corps @theactioncorps]

BREAKING — @SenSanders has committed to introduce a Joint Resolution of Disapproval to block new $20B weapons sale to Israel. Activists secured this commitment at the senior center in Brattleboro, VT on Thursday. @NSC_Spox
