POTUS cannot declare war

To: Sen. Schiff, Sen. Padilla, Rep. Torres

From: A verified voter in Upland, CA

June 18

I am writing to all of you because I’m very concerned about what’s happening with Iran – and that the president is acting as if he has the power to declare war on his own. The Constitution reserves war powers for Congress. I’m asking both of you, my CA Senators, and Congresswoman Torres, to sign onto the War Powers resolutions moving through both chambers of Congress demanding that Trump seek congressional approval before going to war with Iran. These efforts could be the difference between diplomacy and disaster.
