The Iran War Powers Resolution *PASSES* 215-208 in the House with four Republicans joining Democrats: Massie, Davidson, Barrett, and Fitzpatrick.
Thank you to everyone who called and wrote their Members of Congress (including the nearly 150,000 letters to Congress from @MPower_Change members) urging passage of the Iran War Powers Resolution to end Trump's illegal and disastrous war on Iran.
.@IlhanMN is proud to endorse @saikatc because he will be a fierce champion for working people in San Francisco!
From Medicare for All to fighting corporate greed, he’s exactly the kind of ally Ilhan needs in congress!
Election Day is on Tuesday, June 23rd, and MPower Action is proud to endorse Darializa Avila Chevalier (NY-13)! Darializa is a passionate leader & organizer committed to universal healthcare, affordable housing, & building an economy that prioritizes people over profit.
Endorsed by Justice Democrats and numerous progressive organizations, Darializa has also stood firmly against the genocide in Gaza and the ongoing wars on Lebanon and Iran. Her platform centers justice, people power, and opportunity.
Honored to earn @Ilhan endorsement. I first met her at a time when Trump was attacking her personally on a daily basis, and even then, I never saw her flinch once — Rep. Omar is fearless. She has the determination and resolve to fight for what is right against the greatest of odds, and she has taken huge personal risk in doing so.
Rep. Omar’s politics of moral clarity have changed the political reality in Washington, and she is one of the strongest pro-peace and anti-war voices in congress. She is the model for what we need from our congresspeople today and I look forward to working with her.
Honored to have @RashidaTlaib’s endorsement. From day one, she's been a fearless voice of moral clarity, even when it costs her something to speak. In Michigan, she took on the corporations poisoning her district and won. In Congress, her fight for Palestinian rights has shifted what's politically possible in Washington, often at great personal cost, and against the establishment of both parties.
She's shown us how moral courage creates real change. I can't wait to work alongside her to build a Democratic Party that ends funding for Israel's genocide of Palestinians, a party that stands for people and peace over corporations and endless war.
I am aware of the active shooter situation at the Islamic Center of San Diego in Clairemont and am continuing to receive updates from law enforcement. Emergency personnel are on scene and actively working to protect the community and secure the area.
12 Congress members are co-sponsoring @RashidaTlaib's Nakba recognition resolution - up from eight last year:

Proud to have the endorsement of @mpoweraction, the largest Muslim digital advocacy organization in the U.S. This campaign is about ending endless war, defending civil rights, and building a government accountable to people, not corporations. Grateful for their support.
Join me, @hasanthehun, and @RepBowman on May 7th as we rally before the primary. This is our chance, San Francisco!

We're proud to endorse @OliverALarkin for Congress in FL-23.
A union organizer running on Medicare for All, Oliver will go to Washington to fight for working people — not vote with Republicans and trade stocks on inside information like his opponent @JaredEMoskowitz.
People should back Oliver Larkin.
He's a real one, and we're going to work together in Congress to do a full arms embargo on Israel and end all our endless wars abroad.
I’m honored to receive the endorsement of MPower Action, an organization that builds grassroots power among Muslim, Arab, South Asian, and other marginalized communities by organizing people to fight for racial justice and immigrant rights. MPower Action's work is transforming communities across the country, and I’m proud to fight for equity, dignity, and justice for all alongside them.
The Iran–U.S. Ceasefire terms are clear and explicit: the U.S. must choose—ceasefire or continued war via Israel. It cannot have both.
The world sees the massacres in Lebanon. The ball is in the U.S. court, and the world is watching whether it will act on its commitments.
Donald Trump said “a whole civilization will die tonight”. There is no room for interpretation. The President of the United States is threatening genocide in Iran.
Trump is openly calling to commit genocide in Iran, threatening "a whole civilization will die." Beyond passing a War Powers Resolution to end this illegal war, Congress must take action NOW and remove Trump from office. TAKE ACTION: https://t.co/b0ULsQOFuk
This is not some sort of fog of war situation w terrible options foisted upon us by external forces. This is a war of choice and now our country is threatening to commit genocide. It is time for all American patriots to speak up, unanimously, against this monstrous, insane war.
