The United States Congress is considering a resolution that expresses grave concerns over the rapidly escalating tensions between the United States and Iran. This bipartisan resolution calls for the removal of United States armed forces from hostilities with Iran unless Congress formally declares war or enacts a specific statutory authorization for such use of military force. The objective is to prevent an unauthorized war with Iran from occurring. The draft resolution emphasizes that the United States has no current domestically authorized military force against Iran and affirms that any hostilities with Iran must be approved through the constitutionally prescribed process of Congressional approval. It underscores the need for restraint and diplomacy to resolve differences through peaceful means. We urge you to cosponsor and vote in favor of this important resolution that upholds Congress's vital constitutional role in matters of war and peace.
