I’m concerned by the the ongoing U.S. military involvement in Iran. I’m especially troubled by reports of civilian deaths, including more than 100 children in a single strike, and by the risks facing our service members.
I’m hoping you can help clarify a few things:
• What is the clear goal of this engagement, and how will we decide when to end the attacks?
• What’s being done to protect civilians and U.S. troops?
• How will Congress review and oversee this under the War Powers Act?
• What diplomatic efforts are underway to prevent further escalation?
• Are we avoiding actions that destabilize the country long-term?
• Are we thinking ahead so that removing one leader doesn’t just result in the same or worse leadership replacing them?
These decisions have serious consequences, and I believe Congress should play a strong and transparent role. I’d appreciate hearing your position and what steps you’re taking.
Thanks for your time.
