Demand Accountability for Iran Strike Justifications

Your vote authorized military strikes against Iran based on claims that now appear fundamentally flawed. The administration justified these attacks by alleging the Tehran Research Reactor was stockpiling enriched uranium for weapons development. Nuclear experts, including Elena Sokova of the Vienna Center for Disarmament and Non-Proliferation, have called these assessments "confusing and misleading" with "technical errors." IAEA Director Rafael Grossi stated his agency has "no evidence of Iran building a nuclear bomb." The timeline is damning. Just 36 hours before strikes began, Iran offered to turn over 460 kg of 60%-enriched uranium during negotiations. Instead of pursuing this diplomatic opening or waiting for scheduled technical talks in Vienna, the administration sent negotiators Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner without nuclear technical experts. Witkoff defended his lack of nuclear expertise by saying he had "learned quite a bit." Rep. Bill Foster, the only physicist in Congress, confirmed there was "plenty of time" to seek congressional authorization rather than rushing to military action. You owe constituents competent decision-making on matters of war. Demand declassification of evidence justifying these strikes and hold hearings with independent nuclear experts. If the administration cannot substantiate its claims, support a resolution condemning the strikes and preventing further military action without congressional approval.
