Working Assets: Tell Congress: Only You Can Authorize War on Iran
News reports from last summer and fall indicated that the Bush Administration was developing plans for offensive military operations against Iran, and that these plans are not just "contingencies." Right before the fall elections, President Bush moved up the deployment of a major naval task force to be in position off Iran's coast. Yet our consitution, in Article One, Section Eight, says that only COngress has the power to declare war. Despite President Bush's expansive views of his own powers, a unilateral bombing attack on another country is an overt act of war. Fortunately, Representative DeFazio (D-OR) has introduced House Concurrent Resolution 33, expressing the sense of Congress that the President should not initiate military action against Iran without first obtaining authorization from Congress.
Tell your member of Congress to support HCR 33.
PeaceAction: Petition Against War on Iran
Resistance to a Bush planned military strike on Iran is growing in Congress, but it needs your help! Sign the petition to Congress - No War with Iran! House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said recently that she would introduce legislation to stop suck a strike, so our demand is beginning to get through. But the pressure needs to be much, much stronger to stop this President.
Sign the petition!
