<p>Trump’s decision to bomb Iran and join Netanyahu’s war against Iran is a clear violation of the Constitution<sup><small>1</small></sup>.</p>
<p>Trump has now set the U.S. on a dangerous path to a disastrous open-ended military campaign where thousands of American, Iranian, and Israeli lives could be lost.</p>
<p><strong>Senator Tim Kaine and Representative Ro Khanna have introduced war powers resolutions exercising Congress’s authority to stop Trump’s illegal war with Iran</strong><sup><small>2</small></sup>. Congress must reassert its war powers and stop another disastrous, unpopular war.</p>

<p>Sen. Bernie Sanders reacted to the news of the bombing in real-time at a rally, stating that "<strong>the only entity that can take this country to war is the U.S. Congress. The president does not have the right</strong>."<sup><small>3</small></sup></p>
<p>Trump has already indicated that further attacks by U.S. forces could be coming, and Iranian officials have vowed retaliation<sup><small>4</small></sup>, making it likely that Trump’s decision to bomb Iran’s nuclear facilities could begin a dangerous downward spiral into a prolonged war.</p>
<p>Congress has the power to stop this before it's too late by passing the two war powers resolutions introduced by Sen. Kaine and Rep. Khanna, H.Con.Res.38 and S.J.Res.29.</p>
