Dear Jack,

Trump's assasination of Qassem Soleimani, a senior Iranian military
leader, has brought us to the brink of war with Iran. Our friends at Win
Without War are leading the work to stop Trump's reckless war mongering.
[ [link removed] ]Can you add your name NOW to say no war with Iran?

Thank you,

- Heidi

Friend,

This is really, really bad. Because of Donald Trump's actions, we're on
the brink of a major war with Iran.

[ [link removed] ]Add your name NOW to say NO WAR WITH IRAN.

Yesterday, Donald Trump ordered the assassination of Qassem Soleimani, a
senior Iranian military leader, who was killed in drone strikes at Baghdad
airport — merely the latest escalation by a president who has taken one
step after another down the path to war with Iran ever since he took
office.

Now, we need to do what we do best: turn up the pressure to STOP a WAR.
And we need you with us.

Since day one of his presidency, Donald Trump has pushed our country
towards a war with Iran:

* He filled his cabinet with warmongers like Mike Pompeo,
* He pulled out of the historic and successful Iran nuclear deal, and
* He embarked on a “maximum pressure” campaign — sending thousands more
U.S. troops to the Middle East and imposing crippling economic
sanctions on Iran.

We are where we are today because of Donald Trump.

War with Iran would be disastrous and wholly unnecessary. Military and
diplomatic leaders have warned it could bring costs in both blood and
resources greater than the wars with Iraq and Afghanistan combined. For
those in the Middle East, the human suffering from decades of war would be
immeasurable.

War is NOT the answer. Diplomacy is the only way out of this crisis, and
Congress is our best chance to put up a giant roadblock to war.

Earlier this year, bipartisan majorities, backed by a massive grassroots
push for peace, voted in both chambers of Congress to prevent exactly this
kind of unilateral escalation. Pushback from Trump and his allies stopped
us then, which is why we need to get even louder now.

If we don't demand action, Congress will be content to shirk its
responsibility. So let's make them listen.

[ [link removed] ]Join us and tell your members of Congress that they must use their
constitutional authority to STOP WAR WITH IRAN.

We have long feared the actions of this White House — besieged by
impeachment, party to multiple investigations and lawsuits, and entering
an election year — would result in a catastrophic national security
crisis. It is time to remind the president his powers have limits.
Congress must act now and pull us back from the brink of war.

Thank you for working for peace,

Stephen and the Win Without War team
