Sewell Statement on Trump Administration Strikes on Iran | 2026-02-28 | 2026 | 2026-02 | Democrat | House | AL | Terri A. Sewell | S001185 | sewell.house.gov | sewell | https://sewell.house.gov/press-releases | scraper | Washington D.C. — Today, U.S. Rep. Terri Sewell (AL-07) released the following statement regarding the Trump Administration's military strikes on Iran: “Iran has oppressed their people and supported terrorism in the region for decades. This fact does not change the President’s obligations under the Constitution to work with Congress on military actions that put our troops in harm’s way and could drag our country into another prolonged war in the Middle East. I will continue to work with my colleagues in Congress to compel a vote on a war powers resolution. I am also calling on the Administration to immediately provide a briefing on this ongoing military action, including their justification for abandoning diplomatic talks, as well as their strategy for avoiding an extended regional conflict that is not supported by the American people. I am praying for all the service members in the region and their families.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T17:26:08Z |
