John,

This morning, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced that today will be “our most intense day of strikes” against Iran. Let that sink in.

The Trump administration is preparing to dramatically escalate military action — again — without authorization from Congress and without a clear strategy for what comes next.

HELP STOP THE ESCALATION [[link removed]]

Every escalation puts American service members in greater danger and brings us closer to a devastating, wider war in the Middle East. And Becca is refusing to stay silent in this moment. She believes the American people deserve leaders who will defend the Constitution, speak the truth, and stand up when an administration is rushing our country deeper into war.

If you’re able, please chip in $5 or any amount right now to help Becca keep standing up to this dangerous escalation. [[link removed]]

Becca has been clear: Iran’s regime is brutal and oppressive, and she stands with the Iranian people who have courageously demanded freedom and dignity. But launching wave after wave of military strikes is not a strategy for peace.

It risks spiraling into a wider regional war. It puts American troops directly in harm’s way. And it once again sidelines Congress — the branch of government the Constitution explicitly gives the power to decide when our country goes to war.

That is unacceptable. And you can bet Becca is fighting back.

She is pushing to reassert Congress’s authority and stop this conflict from spiraling into another endless war.

The American people have been clear: they do not want another costly war overseas while families here at home are struggling with the cost of groceries, housing, and health care.

They want leaders focused on building a stronger, more secure future here at home.

Becca Balint is standing up in this moment because our democracy demands it.

And with your support, she’ll keep fighting to protect our Constitution, defend our troops, and ensure that decisions about war and peace reflect the will of the American people — not the impulses of one man.

Thank you for standing with us.

— Team Becca
