Your vote against war powers resolution was a disgrace
To: Rep. Golden
From: A verified voter in Lewiston, ME
April 17
I am appalled that you were the one democrat who voted with the GOP to scupper the war crimes resolution.
The war in Iran is being carried out illegally with threats of genocide, unacceptable civilian casualties and without required congressional approval. It is costing billions a day for immoral stupidity.
We had a nuclear treaty with Iran. The straits of Hormuz were open.
Trump tore up the treaty and the straits are now closed.
How can a former marine who swore the oath to the constitution condone this reckless deadly stupidity or nod to paying billions a week for it while more cuts to health care and nutrition and other essential things are under discussion?
Your vote is a shameful betrayal of law and decency.
