We're in a critical moment to finally repeal the 2002 Iraq Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF). The 2002 AUMF authorized war against Saddam Hussein's regime in Iraq – allowing George W. Bush to invade Iraq.

This outdated war authority is unnecessary for ongoing military operations, but as long as it remains, it can be used and abused by this or future administrations. The 2002 Iraq AUMF was used in January 2020 by the Trump administration to justify the assassination of Iranian general Qassem Soleimani, which Congress never authorized, the UN concluded as "unlawful" and brought the U.S. dangerously close to war with Iran. 

We need to put an end to our forever wars.  The House recently passed a provision led by Rep. Barbara Lee to repeal this dangerous authorization in the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA).  

Urge your senators to cosponsor S.J.Res.10 and vote to repeal the 2002 Iraq AUMF!  Take action here.
