Trump’s attacks on Iran are both illegal and unconstitutional. Congress alone has the constitutional authority to declare war. We must vote urgently on the War Powers resolution.

Article I Section 8 of the Constitution makes clear that Congress, and ONLY Congress, has the power to declare war. Trump decided to go to war with Iran exclusively on his own, and we are all paying the price.

We are six months into an ongoing conflict in Iran with no declaration of war. Past Presidents have been given just over 90 days to come to Congress to declare war or end it. We need to adhere to the War Powers Act, and we need to do it now. If the vote were brought to the floor today, we'd vote for it.

Trump is bypassing the Constitution again to wage war with Iran. Only Congress has the power to declare war. He must come before us. No President is above the law! We won’t stop fighting to end this illegal war and prevent another never-ending conflict.

Murphy: This is the most significant military action since the Iraq War. This administration has a responsibility to bring a vote to declare war before the Senate and the House this week… I don’t believe we should be pretending that business is normal right now and moving to a housing bill, which I support, until we get a commitment to have a debate — a real debate — on a war authorization.

Raskin: I heard one of our colleagues across the aisle just say, “Well, yes, Article I, Section 8, Clause 11 does give Congress the exclusive, plenary, comprehensive power to declare war and not the president. And we could be debating it, but the president has already taken us to war, so it’s too late. It would undermine the cause for us to debate it.” What a humiliating, self-defeating argument for a member of the Article I branch of Congress to be making. Don’t you understand? That destroys our power to declare war if any president can plunge us into a war and thereby defeat our exclusive, plenary power over it—

Hegseth: This actually isn't something new to me. I helped lead the surge, the public fight for the Iraq surge, stood and watched people stand in the senate and declare the war is lost. Before it even started.

Massie: They're also required to come to us after 90 days, and we're well past 90 days. Now, the president's lawyers acknowledge this reality because they've pretended to stop the war at the 90 day point and then started again. They're in violation of the law.

Schiff: The founders gave us the power to declare war or to refuse to do so. If we don’t use that power to bring an end to this war, if we don’t use that power to insist that Congress play its role in our system of checks and balances, that power is gone for good—and that is dangerous for this country, because it means presidents will make war on a whim, as it appears this president has done.

Here is the great Constitution law professor and Congressman Jamie Raskin explaining to Americans only the members of Congress, on behalf of the people, have the right to declare war. The madman in the Oval Office has no power to declare war. No president, even sane ones, have that power. It is written in the Constitution. #DemsUnited

The clock is ticking. Trump has until April 30 to resolve this issue in Iran, or he will have to ask Congress for a declaration of war, or an “Authorization for Use of Military Force” (AUMF) to keep going. If he doesn’t get it, he has to pull out. He can continue bombing to protect troops while he pulls out (up to 60 days) but everything has to end before then. Congress is unlikely to declare war on Iran, and still unlikely to authorize an Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF) going into a Midterm election cycle. That would be political suicide to the Republicans and a goldmine for the Democrats. So Trump is up against the clock, and his two-week ceasefire just fell apart. I will soon be writing my Republican US congressman and senators, instructing them to oppose any declaration of war or AUMF. I invite you to join me in doing this as Pope Leo XIV explicitly instructed us to do.

🚨 Derrick Van Orden: “President Trump is absolutely acting within his constitutional authority.” He complied with the War Powers Resolution — notified Congress within 48 hours and has 60 days to prosecute. “This isn’t about midterms. It’s about the future of America.” “We’ve been at war with Iran for 47 years.” Beirut. Khobar Towers. U.S. casualties in Iraq. “It’s time for them to go. Period.”
