If Thune and Johnson refuse to do their jobs, Schumer and Jeffries must bring Democrats back to DC to end this war.
Let’s be crystal clear: This war never should have started, and Congress cannot allow Trump to continue on this horrifying path of escalation. While we’re relieved Trump has walked back his threats of genocidal war crimes from this morning, words are not enough. https://www.yahoo.com/news/world/article/trump-agrees-to-two-week-ceasefire-deal-with-iran-after-threatening-to-wipe-out-its-whole-civilization-how-we-got-here-and-what-could-happen-next-193210369.html
Trump agrees to two-week ceasefire deal with Iran after threatening to wipe out its 'whole civilization.' How we got here, and what could happen next.

As Tuesday's deadline approached, the president accepted a proposal from Pakistan to temporarily pause hostilities and reopen the Strait of Hormuz while...

Americans, Iranians, and people around the world deserve real assurance that their lives won’t be thrown into chaos because a reckless president wakes up and posts a stream of threats on Truth Social.

This war is killing civilians in Iran and across the region, and its consequences are being felt here at home. This isn’t just a foreign policy disaster — it’s an economic one. A wider war will drive up costs and make everyday life harder for working people.

No war!! Let our Republican representative especially know what you think.

Tell Congress: End the Illegal War on Iran

Trump's unauthorized, unprovoked war in Iran has cost the lives of US service members and thousands of civilians in Iran and across the Middle East. Trump and Netanyahu have made repeated threats of ground invasions, unlawful actions, and genocidal destruction, which could lead to further horrors and yet another catastrophic forever war. At the same time, efforts to reach a more permanent ceasefire and de-escalate the conflict continue to be undermined by the Israeli government's relentless military escalation, including ongoing attacks on Lebanon and across the region. Taxpayers are being asked to bankroll war while families struggle with rising costs at home and essential programs remain on the chopping block. Both the House and Senate have now passed War Powers Resolutions challenging Trump's unauthorized military actions against Iran and reasserting Congress's constitutional authority over matters of war. But these votes are not enough. We call on Members of Congress to: Hold the line for not another dime. A vote for the Trump-Hegseth weapons budget, a supplemental request for funding, or additional funding for war under the NDAA is unacceptable. Stop funding Israel’s military. We must block any new funding or weapons transfers that feed this war. And we must block new efforts, like Sections 224 and 622 of the NDAA, that would require deeper cooperation between the US and Israeli militaries. Any Member who opposes this war must reject weapons transfers and military aid to Israel. The ongoing escalations in the region perpetuate the risk of a wider regional war. Keep Voting on War Powers Resolutions (WPR). Both chambers have passed different war powers resolutions. Now it's time to coalesce around one they can send to the president's desk and challenge him to veto a unified opposition to the war.

Indivisible Guide
Congress must act immediately before Trump can do more damage. Mike Johnson and John Thune must do their jobs and reconvene Congress. They do not get to continue recess as normal. It is time to act. Congress needs to use every tool available to stop this illegal, catastrophic war from spiraling further — starting with passing a War Powers Resolution.

Do you live in #WestMichigan and have been looking for a way to get more involved in working to help make change locally and across the state? Kent County Indivisible is looking for volunteers to help us do just that.
