Stop a Reckless War — Impeach Hegseth

New reporting from Axios and The New York Times reveals growing alarm inside Washington over discussions of escalating conflict with Iran and rhetoric that appears to undermine rules meant to protect civilians. Lawmakers like Rep. Yassamin Ansari have already called for impeachment, warning that these actions could violate U.S. law and international standards.

This is exactly the kind of moment where public pressure matters most.

Experts and advocates note that abandoning established protections in conflict zones risks catastrophic humanitarian consequences and undermines U.S. credibility worldwide.

Congress has the power to act — but history shows they only do when people like us demand it. If enough of us speak out right now, we can force lawmakers to investigate, hold hearings, and move toward impeachment before it’s too late.

The window to act is closing fast. Every day without accountability increases the risk of escalation and irreversible harm.

Thanks,
