Trump didn’t do this alone: The Republican-led Congress allowed this costly war to continue and reach this vague, uncertain phase. There has never been a military solution to the challenges posed by Iran's nuclear program or regional activities. This ill-advised war only reaffirms that. In the days to come, Congress must hold this Administration’s feet to the fire as implementation of this agreement and critical negotiations move forward. Congress must be provided with briefings, transparency, and more information regarding this memorandum of understanding (MOU) and the critical negotiations that come next. It’s what our Constitution requires as a co-equal branch of government. Ultimately, any final negotiated agreement will be judged by whether it successfully addresses what this war could not: securing effective negotiated constraints on Iran's nuclear program, reducing regional tensions, and addressing the ongoing humanitarian and security crises. If this agreement helps bring the conflict to a sustained close, it can save lives, reduce the risk of further regional escalation, and begin to alleviate the severe economic costs of the Republican war of choice. If it does not, I fear it will only reaffirm that Republicans will continue to fail the American people.” | 1 | 2026-06-19T06:50:32Z | 2026-06-19T06:53:40Z |
