3/4/26, the Senate rejected the Kaine-Paul Iran War Powers Resolution (WPR), by a vote of 47-53. On 3/5, the House rejected the Khanna-Massie WPR by a vote of 212-219. Our tool to thank those who voted the right way, or to "spank" those who didn't is below peaceaction.org/get-involved…

Amazing! The House just passed a War Powers Act resolution to end the Iran war! It must now go to the Senate, but it won't need a signature from Trump. This is the furthest any WPR has gone against the Iran war! A major defeat for those who wish to continue the war, although it doesn't automatically force Trump's hand. Several Republicans broke with Trump to get this passed: Massie, Fitpatrick, Davidson, and Barrett. Several organizations deserve massive credit for this key win: @justfp Action Corps @FCNL @NIACouncil @demandprogress @PeaceAction

Republicans just shut down voting on the Iran War Powers Resolution the instant they knew they'd lose. Americans have had enough with this war in Iran. It's time we force Trump to end it.

Replying to @RepJayapal
@RepJayapal: "Republicans just called off the vote on a war powers resolution because they were afraid it would pass and Trump's war of choice in Iran would be ended. This is absolutely ridiculous, and a failure of leadership from the Republican Party." commondreams.org/news/house-…

'They Were Afraid It Would Pass': House GOP Cancels Iran War Powers Vote for Second Straight Day |...

After Senate Republicans helped advance a Democratic war powers resolution on Iran, the House GOP canceled a related vote, seemingly due to key absences.

🚨NEWS: Republicans just pulled a vote on the Iran War Powers Resolution because they knew they were going to lose. They rigged the rules to protect the president’s historically unpopular war from a fair up or down vote.

In Congress, I’ll co-sponsor the Block the Bombs Act, work to end U.S. complicity in human rights violations, restore Congress’ constitutional role in foreign policy, and support multilateral action to achieve a safer world. New Yorkers’ hard-earned tax dollars should not be funding Trump’s imperial sociopathy, forever wars, or genocide. Thanks @PeaceAction for working to build a pro-peace Congress.

Feeling the pinch from the Iran War's $29 billion price tag? How about the $1.5 trillion Pentagon request for 2027? Now, add a revised $1.2 trillion cost for Trump's vanity Golden Dome missile shield. We just want decent, affordable healthcare, please!!! npr.org/2026/05/13/g-s1-1217…

Trump's proposed 'Golden Dome' estimated to cost $1.2 trillion

A Congressional Budget Office analysis suggests the cost of the missile defense program could be $1.2 trillion over the next 20 years, a far heftier sum than the initial $175 billion price tag.

Most Americans continue to oppose this war. By a 56%-44% margin, respondents said they oppose the military action in Iran, and just 36% approve of Trump's handling. A majority–55%–thinks Iran either represents just a minor threat or none at all to the US. npr.org/2026/03/06/nx-s1-573…

Poll: A majority of Americans opposes U.S. military action in Iran

Most Americans disapprove of President Trump's handling of Iran, and a majority sees Iran as either only a minor threat or no threat at all, an NPR/PBS News/Marist poll finds.

We're thrilled to endorse @conway4congress for #MD07! He knows that throwing trillions at the Pentagon will not keep us safe the way that investment in education, healthcare, and our communities will. We look forward to working with him to build a pro-peace foreign policy!

Congress should also impeach, convict, and remove the president from office for this illegal act, as politically unlikely as that appears now, says Kevin Martin of @PeaceAction. commondreams.org/opinion/con…

Congress, Do Your Job and End This Illegal War of Aggression by the US and Israel | Common Dreams

Congress must assert its constitutional authority over matters of war and peace against an out-of-control, rogue president and executive branch, and vote in favor of the Iran War Powers Resolutions.
