It’s incredibly dangerous -- President Trump again disregarded the checks and balances established by our Founding Fathers when he issues an airstrike targeting Iranian military officials without consulting Congress.

Trump has recklessly escalated tensions and put our troops, diplomats, and Americans in danger. He’s bringing us closer to war with Iran than we have been in more than three decades.

I took immediate action to advance a measure that would limit military action against Iran and require Trump to receive authorization from Congress. This is urgently important to our country’s safety. Will you sign our petition and show your support?

We should exercise diplomacy -- not rash decision-making conducted over Twitter without strategy and with little concern for the consequences.

THIS is what high-level foreign policy and U.S. decision-making should look like:

Trump must go through Congress before escalating hostilities further. Sign our petition today if you agree.

Thank you,
