Here's Schumer, according to sources. bsky.app/profile/ms.n...

MS NOW@ms.now

NEW: Senator Chuck Schumer is calling for Congress to come back to Washington immediately and vote on a war powers resolution regarding Iran. MS NOW's @alivitali.bsky.social reports.

Here's Schumer literally just now on X.

Here's Jeffries on X.

This is the main action item in Jeffries' statement.

Here's Ilhan Omar. Much more clearly stating the illegality of this war and consequences to civilians. But same ultimate ask - a vote on the Khanna/Massie War Powers resolution. bsky.app/profile/repi...

Rep. Ilhan Omar@repilhan.bsky.social

I'm glad they're all pushing for a vote on the Khanna/Massie War Powers resolution. I think they should similarly get behind impeachment.

People say what's the point of impeachment? It'll fail. The War Powers resolution will possibly (probably?) fail as well, like the Venezuelan War Powers resolution. You push for both because both are required responses to the illegality we're facing.

I really wish our leaders understood this :(

If the Democrats don’t push for what’s right, the Reich Wing will use that fact to campaign against them in the next 10 election cycles.

You fight the little battles you know you’re gonna lose and you keep piling them on and you stuff sessions and the courts with as much anti-fascist defense as they are with fascist takeover tactics. If cruelty is their intention—make them feel it, too, legally, financially, morally. Do the job.

Not to mention it forces public response from those voting and can be used against them in campaigns etc.

apnews.comHouse Republicans barely defeat Venezuela war powers resolution to check Trump’s military actionsThe House has barely rejected a Democratic-backed resolution that would have prevented President Donald Trump from sending U.S. military forces to Venezuela.

Sanders' statement. Very clearly anti-war. But still the same practical ask as Schumer and every other D (except Landsman, who seems to entirely support the war) that I've seen - a vote on the War Powers resolution. bsky.app/profile/sand...

Senator Bernie Sanders@sanders.senate.gov

The U.S. Senate must be clear: no war with Iran.

Slotkin's statement on the other end of the spectrum. Doesn't explicitly call for a vote on the War Powers resolution - just says Trump "hasn't followed the Constitution" and "Congress should come back to Washington to debate these issues." bsky.app/profile/slot...

Senator Elissa Slotkin@slotkin.senate.gov

My statement on President Trump's Strikes on Iran:

@justthisguy.net

Thing is, at this point it’s no longer up to us to stop Trump from going to war with Iran. After this, Iran is most likely going to war with us. All we’ve got left is “How can the US calm Iran.” Which we probably can not do. Bernie, Congress has been effectively mooted. Dammit.
