An open letter to the President & U.S. Congress

Pursue diplomacy, avoid war with Iran

1 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!

The unprecedented deployment of six B-2 stealth bombers to Diego Garcia signals an alarming escalation of tensions with Iran. As an American deeply concerned about the potential consequences of military action, I urge you to firmly oppose any plans for bombing or attacking Iran. Launching strikes would undoubtedly provoke retaliation, potentially spiraling into a catastrophic regional war with devastating human costs and severe economic disruptions from spiking oil prices. History has shown that wars often have unintended consequences far graver than expected. Rather than this dangerous path of military brinkmanship, I implore you to instead prioritize vigorous diplomatic efforts to de-escalate tensions and pursue a negotiated resolution. Diplomacy may be difficult, but it is the only prudent way to address concerns over Iran's nuclear program while avoiding another destabilizing Middle East conflict. The American people do not want another ill-conceived war based on inflammatory rhetoric and incomplete intelligence. As an elected representative, you have a responsibility to make wise choices to protect our national security interests while upholding our values. I urge you to be a voice of restraint and to do everything in your power to steer the administration away from the reckless option of bombing Iran.
