Tell Congress: No War with Iran Trump has launched unauthorized military strikes on Iran, dragging the United States into yet another war without approval from Congress. This reckless escalation is putting U.S. servicemembers, Ameri...

Every Member of Congress needs to understand that the upcoming War Powers Resolution vote will be a defining vote — just like the Iraq War vote that defined a generation of politicians.

But our elected officials won’t understand how significant the vote is unless they hear and feel the outrage now.

Where things stand after the US and Israeli strikes on Iran The United States and Israel targeted Iran in coordinated attacks over the weekend that killed Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and set off a furious Iranian response.

The AP has a clear and helpful synopsis of Trump’s War in facts and “what to watch for”. This war is considered illegal, immoral, unnecessary and already very costly in casualties and resources.
Let your voices be heard!

Hey JD; THIS is what it looks like when the world respects you!

Representative Ryan has been a leader in this fight. However, our NY Governor and members of Congress need NOW to pass NY4All and Dignity not Detention Acts with explicit language against these warehouse purchases.
