President Trump has launched unauthorized military strikes on Iran, dragging the United States toward yet another war without approval from Congress.

This reckless escalation places U.S. servicemembers, American civilians, and Iranian civilians in danger. It advances 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 authority immediately and block further military action.

The Constitution is clear. Congress, not the president, holds the power to declare war and to approve or reject sustained military engagement.

That authority is not optional. It is a duty.

Members of Congress must use every tool available. 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 escalation.

People across the country must make it clear that we expect Congress to act.

Dear 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 United States into armed conflict without congressional authorization, placing U.S. 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 requiring 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.
