McBride Statement on Trump Administration's Strikes on Iran | 2026-02-28 | 2026 | 2026-02 | Democrat | House | DE | Sarah McBride | M001238 | mcbride.house.gov | mcbride | https://mcbride.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | WASHINGTON, D.C. — Congresswoman Sarah McBride (DE-AL) released the following statement in response to the Trump administration’s strikes on Iran: “This president appears determined to drag our country into yet another regime change war overseas rather than addressing problems here at home. Whether a full-scale regional war in the Middle East unfolds today or sometime in the future, this president’s shoot-first-ask-questions-later foreign policy inevitably leads to one place in the end: death, destruction, and destabilization. “This president routinely shreds both the progress and potential of diplomacy, just as he did when he destroyed the previous Iran nuclear deal. And just as he has done again this weekend, being far too willing to put the lives of American servicemembers at risk when achievable diplomatic and multilateral solutions exist to prevent a nuclear Iran or to secure the human rights of the Iranian people. “Military action should be an option of last resort, not your dessert round as you lounge at your personal resort. “Through all of this, he has kept the American people — and Congress — in the dark about the realistic plans, potential risks, and true goals of this operation until it is too late. I’ve opposed reckless military action before and do so again, which is why I believe Congress must immediately reconvene to vote on a War Powers Resolution to prevent this administration from pulling us into yet another forever war.” ### | 1 | 2026-04-15T05:46:42Z | 2026-04-15T05:48:27Z |
