Thank you @RoKhanna for speaking out for a War Powers Resolution to stop the unconstitutional U.S. attacks on Yemen. #HandsOffYemen
Trump promised to end endless wars—now he's bombing Yemen without Congressional approval. I stood up when Biden did it, and I’ll stand up now. I passed with @SenSanders & @MikeLeeforUtah a historic War Powers Resolution on Yemen in 2019. No president is above the Constitution.

Our team in Vermont helped push Senator Sanders to introduce the Joint Resolutions of Disapproval. Now it’s your turn—add your voice to get your senators on board and help stop the U.S. from fueling war.

BREAKING — @SenSanders has committed to introduce a Joint Resolution of Disapproval to block new $20B weapons sale to Israel. Activists secured this commitment at the senior center in Brattleboro, VT on Thursday. @NSC_Spox
CALIFORNIA – Send a letter to Senator Butler urging her to support the Joint Resolutions of Disapproval against weapons sales to Israel, to stop the U.S. from fueling war in Palestine, Lebanon, Iran, and Yemen. Your voice counts! actioncorps.org/20billion
📧 WE NEED YOUR HELP. Tell your senators to stop the U.S. from fueling war in Palestine, Lebanon, Iran, and Yemen. With violence escalating and U.S. troops being deployed to Israel, we must reclaim Congress’s power over war decisions. Every voice counts! actioncorps.org/20billion.ht…

We are 1 of more than 100 U.S. organizations calling for restoration of U.S. funding for the UN Relief and Works Agency which provides humanitarian assistance to Palestinians. #fundUNRWA

Instead of bombing Yemen, the U.S. should be securing a ceasefire in Gaza and restoring humanitarian aid for people across the Middle East. For more details, read the @Politico NatSec Daily coverage of our efforts and the full letter to the senators below actioncorps.org/2024-yemen-l…

.@POTUS has no authority to continue dropping bombs on Yemen. With each illegal bombing, peace is delayed, and more children are starved to death. It’s time for bipartisan action to ensure only Congress can declare war, regardless of which party is in office. #YemenCantWait

The majority of Americans do not want the U.S. participating in needless wars. Over 50 organizations are urging @timkaine, @SenToddYoung, @ChrisMurphyCT, and @SenMikeLee to introduce a new Yemen War Powers Resolution to demand constitutional oversight on war decisions.

Earlier this year, these senators voiced concerns about Biden's unauthorized attacks. Now 50+ ideologically diverse civil society organizations are calling on them to take action including @Avaaz @TroopsHomeUS @commondefense @defpriorities @libertarianinst @UnitedChurch

🧵 @POTUS is still bombing Yemen and Congress isn’t defending its constitutional authority over war. We’re calling on @timkaine, @SenToddYoung, @ChrisMurphyCT, and @SenMikeLee to follow through on their letter to Biden demanding oversight on war decisions. #YemenWarPowers

1/ @Reuters: “The aims of the [US Saudi] trip include to regain some sway with Riyadh over oil prices, to fend off Chinese and Russian influence, and to nurture hopes for an eventual Saudi-Israeli normalization.”
