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.

I left the classified briefing on Iran even more concerned about what comes next as Trump drags us into what's so clearly a war. 
 
This Administration has no plan. American lives are on the line.

Check your mailbox — mail-in ballots for our April 16th election are going out THIS WEEK to voters who requested them.

Now’s the time to vote for someone who is unbossed, unbought and ready to stand up to Trump and MAGA Republicans in DC.

At a recent town hall I did in NJ, everyone raised their hands when I asked if they opposed military strikes against Iran.

Let’s be clear: Americans don’t want another endless war in the Middle East. This must come to an end.

Acyn on X: "Trump: The lives of American heroes may be lost, and we may have casualties — that often happens in war. https://t.co/tbBZlWjYN9" / X Trump: The lives of American heroes may be lost, and we may have casualties — that often happens in war. https://t.co/tbBZlWjYN9

Americans don’t want more endless war, but Trump clearly does.

There is no clear objective, let alone legal authority, for this recklessness. Trump is risking the lives of our troops and ignoring the power of Congress for his illegal war with Iran. When he ran on peace, he lied—as he always does.

The President has launched an unlawful regime change war with Iran, putting American troops at risk.

Congress must return now to vote on the bipartisan War Powers Resolution.

Every member of Congress and candidate must take action to uphold the Constitution.

Roxbury NJ residents and friends rally for an end to ICE detention camps and the plan for one in a warehouse in the township. The crowd at town hall on Route 46 filled the parking lot; these pics were taken from a car driving by. #iceoutofnj #endICEcamps #AbolishICE #NJ07

I was proud to stand with grassroots organizers and neighbors at the Roxbury Town Hall today to say loud and clear: we don’t want another ICE detention center in our backyard.

When we fight, we win — and it’s time to put a stop to this detention center and abolish ICE.

Republican revolt derails ICE detention facility plans Officials in Mississippi, New Hampshire, Tennessee and beyond have pushed back.

I'm hearing it from Republicans, Democrats, and Independents: nobody wants a massive warehouse detention facility in their neighborhood.

North Jersey Republicans support ICE detention centers. Just not in their town. Roxbury Republicans say they’re fighting to prevent an immigrant detention center in the town. They also say they’re in favor of deportations and aggressive ICE actions.

We’ve made it extra easy to get in touch with your Members of Congress. Urge Democrats to keep up the fight to get ICE Out For Good and tell Republicans to agree to a DHS funding bill that protects our communities and civil rights.

ICE Denies Buying Warehouse in Roxbury, Says Article Was Based on a ‘Mistake’ ICE said Wednesday it has not bought a Roxbury warehouse, contending a report to the contrary was based on a false statement issued by mistake

🚨 ICE has NOT purchased a facility in Roxbury, NJ.

ICE confirms that the initial report was based on a statement sent by "mistake.”

But make no mistake, the community is still mobilizing to stop any future deal. #ICEOutOfNJ

Tell Your Senators: Vote NO on Voter Suppression | Indivisible

Let’s be clear: The GOP’s new voter suppression legislation (modeled on the SAVE Act) is unlikely to pass the Senate.

But with this attack on our voting rights ahead of the midterms, we can’t take anything for granted.

(around an image of a masked ICE agent holding a gun) Republicans "One Big Beautiful Bill' nearly tripled funding for ICE. That money came from your benefits:

paid for by cuts to reproductive health care

paid for by cuts to Medicare & Medicaid

paid for by cuts to SNAP

paid for by cuts to clean energy projects

paid for by cuts to obesity prevention

paid for by cuts to disaster response

paid for by cuts to energy tax credits

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.

Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.
