Two bipartisan votes told Trump to end it. He's threatening to escalate instead. ͏͏͏͏͏͏͏͏͏͏͏͏͏͏

Sandeep — Congress already voted to end this war. Trump ignored it. We're demanding Congress enforce its own war powers vote, and cut off the funding for a war it already told the President to end. The Demand “Congress: Enforce the War Powers Vote and Cut Off Funding for Trump's Iran War.” Cut the funding. End the war.
Add your name if you think a Congressional vote should actually mean something. Sign only if you agree Congress shouldn't keep funding a war it already voted to end. Takes 10 seconds. No donation required to add your name.

No Unconstitutional
War With Iran |
215–208 — the House vote in June to end the war. 50–48 — the Senate vote, days later, to do the same. 0 — the legal force either vote carried, since neither required Trump's signature. |
Here's what's actually happened: the war with Iran started at the end of February. By June, frustration had built to the point that a bipartisan majority in the House — Republicans included — passed a resolution directing Trump to end it. Three weeks later, the Senate did the same. Neither vote required his signature, and neither one stopped the war. Trump is reportedly threatening to expand strikes to Iranian civilian infrastructure — while the Pentagon pushes a $1.15 trillion budget that would keep bankrolling the war. Senate Democrats already blocked that budget bill over exactly that concern. That's the fight: whether Congress's own constitutional power over war is worth anything, or whether it's just a formality he can ignore. Our network doesn't have a vote in Congress. But every name on this petition is proof to the members who already voted the right way that the country is behind them — and pressure on the ones who haven't. Loving this country means expecting more from the people we send to represent it — including holding the line when a war drags on longer than anyone was told it would. → Add your name to the petition |
