While we are encouraged to see growing support, including three of the four previous Democratic \u2018no\u2019 votes flipping, it is deeply disappointing that Rep. Golden joined Republicans in opposing efforts to stop further escalation, casting a decisive vote against the resolution.<\/p>\n<p>Democratic leadership\u2019s handling of this moment is also concerning. They previously declined to force a war powers vote before a critical period of escalation before recess, citing a lack of votes. Now they have moved forward under less favorable conditions, including during sensitive ceasefire negotiations, but still without the votes they previously claimed were necessary before proceeding, and with a changed balance in the House. That inconsistency raises a serious question about what is driving leadership\u2019s priorities: strategy or politics.<\/p>\n<p>We urge members of Congress, Democrats and Republicans alike, to support sustained diplomatic efforts to resolve this conflict. The American people overwhelmingly reject this war and want a diplomatic end to it.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Thursday, the House failed to adopt a war powers resolution to end the war in Iran.
