Today, Senator Andy Kim released the following statement.

“Americans don’t want to go to war with Iran.

"By launching strikes, President Trump has made the same dangerous and foolish decision President Bush did a generation ago. He put Americans in harm’s way without clearly showing there’s an imminent threat to our national security. He put the Iranian people in harm’s way by calling on them to rise up without a broad coalition of partners to assist in their protection. And Trump once again started a cycle of violence that has already escalated and could spiral out of control. This is unacceptable.

"The Senate should vote on Senator Kaine’s War Powers Resolution immediately.

"I stand ready to do so today.”

Later on Saturday morning, Senator Kim (D-NJ) demanded Congress go into session for an immediate vote on Senator Kaine’s War Powers Resolution:

“How many times do the American people need to wake up in the morning and see this president dragging us into another conflict...I have zero confidence in this president who has so flagrantly violated our Constitution. That is why we should have Congress immediately go back into session for the War Powers vote, to reassert the American people’s will.”
