An open letter to the U.S. Congress

URGENT: Co-sponsor Ansari’s Impeachment of Hegseth & Halt Iran War

12 so far! Help us get to 25 signers!

I am writing as your constituent to demand your immediate intervention to stop the unauthorized, illegal kinetic war currently being waged in Iran. First, I demand you formally co-sponsor and publicly support Rep. Yassamin Ansari’s Articles of Impeachment against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. Executing military strikes against Iranian civilian infrastructure and schools without Congressional authorization constitutes a severe violation of international law. My tax dollars will not fund war crimes. Second, I demand you force a floor vote and vote YES on the War Powers Resolution to immediately strip all funding for offensive military actions against Iran. Third, I demand you publicly call for the invocation of the 25th Amendment, and support legislation under Section 4 to establish a Congressional oversight body to evaluate the Commander-in-Chief's fitness for the nuclear and conventional chain of command. Article I of the Constitution grants Congress the sole authority to declare war. The executive branch has bypassed you and gone rogue. Do your constitutional duty, hold Secretary Hegseth accountable, and halt this escalation immediately.
