I am writing to urge you to oppose any further military escalation against Iran until the newly elected Congress is seated in January 2027, unless Iran initiates a new attack that requires an immediate defensive response. The American people have just voted in a consequential election. The incoming Congress deserves the opportunity to debate and exercise its constitutional authority over decisions that could expand this war. There is no justification for using the remaining weeks of the current Congress to initiate or intensify hostilities that could have profound consequences for American lives, regional stability, and international security. I ask you to publicly oppose further escalation, insist on meaningful congressional oversight, and demand that the administration seek explicit congressional authorization before undertaking additional offensive military action. The decision to expand a war must not be made unilaterally by a president in the final weeks before a newly elected Congress takes office. Please make your position on this issue clear to your constituents.
