John, this is important.

Last night, news broke that the United States launched an airstrike in Iraq that killed a top military general of Iran.

It was an incredibly reckless, dangerous escalation in tensions between the U.S. and Iran, and many fear it means we’re on the brink of another endless, deadly war – this time with Iran.

There’s no time to waste: we the people need to stand up and demand Congress do their Constitutional duty by voting to stop a war with Iran ASAP. Add your name to our joint petition with Win Without War to make your voice heard now >>

As Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren both pointed out, Donald Trump once criticized the Iraq war and even made promises to stop endless wars like it, but the truth is, yesterday’s military aggression towards Iran was no accident.

Since day one of his presidency, Trump has pushed our country towards a war with Iran. He filled his cabinet with warmongers like Mike Pompeo, pulled out of the historic and successful Iran nuclear deal, embarked on a “maximum pressure” campaign that sent thousands more U.S. troops to the Middle East, imposed crippling economic sanctions on Iran, and now, he oversaw the assassination of a senior Iranian military commander.

We’re now on the path to another potential World War III, and countless lives are at stake.

If you thought the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq were bad, experts say a war with Iran would be even worse.

The power to declare war belongs in the hands of Congress, NOT the president. We need you to get loud in this moment of urgency and demand Congress step in and stop war with Iran now!

Together, we must rush to stop another endless war before it’s too late.

Thanks for taking action,

-Charles
