SHAMEFUL: A majority of Senate Republicans just blocked our bipartisan War Powers Resolution by a vote of 49-50. This is a slap in the face to the majority of Americans who want this war to end. My full statement:
An official statement titled "Jayapal Statement on Senate Blocking War Powers Resolution" dated September 24, 2026. The statement reads, "The Senate’s failure to pass my War Powers Resolution is a slap in the face to the millions of American people who want this war to end. The Senate had the opportunity to send a clear message to this administration that they would not stand for another day of his war of choice. Instead, a majority of Senate Republicans acted as a cult party and stood by Trump’s unpopular and devastating war. In the House, we will continue to pass these resolutions and demand an end to the war. It is time to reassert Congress’s constitutional authority to declare war."
