TAKE ACTION NOW
Congress must stop the war in Iran and prevent nuclear war. The President has committed war crimes by threatening to obliterate Iran and made veiled threats to start a nuclear war. President Trump or Benjamin Netanyahu could authorize a nuclear strike at any time.
Congress must use all available channels to immediately engage with the Trump Administration to 1) stop any plans to utilize nuclear weapons against Iran and, 2) push for negotiations with all nine nuclear-armed states to prevent nuclear war.
