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.

10 years ago this week, the US began supporting the Saudi-Emirati-led coalition in bombing Yemen, creating a humanitarian crisis. Saudis stopped April 1, 2022. Now, exactly 10 years after the US-backed war on Yemen began, the U.S. is back at it, bombing directly. #YemenCantWait

Thank you @RoKhanna for speaking out for a War Powers Resolution to stop the unconstitutional U.S. attacks on Yemen. #HandsOffYemen

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
MINNESOTA – Send a letter to @SenTinaSmith and @SenAmyKlobuchar urging them 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!
📧 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…

Israel is using US weapons to kill civilians, break the law, and restrict humanitarian aid in Gaza.
US law and policy are clear: the US must stop arming Israel.
We joined @CivCenter @OxfamAmerica +more (25 orgs) on this letter to @POTUS: civiliansinconflict.org/pres… #NotAnotherBomb
Help restore funding for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), an essential humanitarian aid agency, for Palestine refugees. Sign the petition and contact your representatives to cosponsor the UNRWA Funding Emergency Restoration Act.

Heading to the White House for classified briefing with my colleagues who have been helping lead the fight to end our support for the Saudi led war in Yemen.
Our message: Saudi blockade of Yemen’s major airport and seaport is causing humanitarian crisis and must be lifted.

For Six years the Saudi-led coalition has imposed a blockade on Yemen leading to starvation and the broader humanitarian crisis.
Lift the blockade— Don’t give us empty words @POTUS @StateDept_NEA @SecBlinken

The world needs a Global Covid Response.
Congress and the IMF can give it one.
Tell @SenatorRisch and @MikeCrapo that Idahoans support the full release of 2 trillion SDRs.
