Rep. Adams Statement on the United States Attack on Iran
WASHINGTON, DC-Today, Congresswoman Alma S. Adams, Ph.D. (D-NC-12) released a statement on U.S. military strikes on Iran.
"Today, President Trump launched a massive ongoing military operation against Iran. The President has chosen to forgo diplomacy and has placed American troops under threat. I pray for their safety and the safety of all civilians in this conflict.
"The Iranian government's violations of human rights and nuclear ambitions must be addressed. However, without clear and pressing need, the President must seek authorization from Congress before launching any use of military force that could constitute an act of war.
"Congress must exercise its constitutional authority, and I am calling on Speaker Johnson to call the House of Representatives back to Washington immediately."
