DFA Members are taking action to stop a war with Iran. A war that could
escalate too easily into World War III at worst and almost certainly
another endless war in the Middle East at best.
Yesterday, we stood with Win without War in calling on Congress to act
immediately to stop a catastrophic war with Iran.
Today, we’re in the streets with the ANSWER coalition protesting in two
dozen major cities nationwide.
Next week, when Members of Congress return to DC, we’ll deliver our
signatures and make sure every Member of Congress -- in the House and
Senate -- Democrat and Republican -- knows if they stand up to Trump’s
reckless rush to war with Iran, the American people will have their back.

more support we show the stronger our movement will be in stopping endless
war with Iran.

John, the good news is many Members of Congress are already
showing powerful leadership by making their positions unequivocally clear.
Check out what members of The Squad have said already:
"Right now is the moment to decide if you are pro-peace or not. The
cheerleaders of war, removed from its true cost, will gladly convince you
that up is down - just as they did in Iraq in ‘03. But war does not
establish peace. War does not create security. War endangers us all."
-Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
"They’re going to accuse anyone who cautions against war of "siding with
our enemies" or "supporting terrorists." This is the exact rhetoric that
got us into the War in Iraq. Don’t fall for it." -Ilhan Omar
"We cannot stay silent as this lawless President recklessly moves us
closer to yet another unnecessary war that puts innocent lives at risk at
home & across the globe. Congress alone has the authority to declare war,
& we must reclaim our responsibility & say no to war with Iran." -Rashida
Tlaib
"The occupant’s foreign policy is erratic, impulsive, and dangerous.
Further escalation puts the lives of American personnel, our allies, and
countless civilians at even greater risk. Join me in saying no more
endless war." -Ayanna Pressley
The bad news is the relentless attacks from Trump supporters and
right-wing warmongering pundits on TV, who will do anything to deflect
blame from the President in support of a rush to war, could drown out our
voices and swing other Members of Congress to their side.

Congress has a moral and legal obligation to reassert its power to stop
this war and protect innocent people in America, Iran and around the world
from the horrific consequences of this reckless escalation of violence in
the Middle East.
Let’s make sure Congress knows exactly where we stand and that we’ll be
watching. When leaders stand up for peace and against a war with Iran, we
stand with you.
The future depends on us. Thank you for taking action at this critical
time in history.
