In the courts, members of Congress have standing to sue when the executive nullifies our constitutional role, and that option must be on the table the moment this deadline passes.

We will fight this on every front.
Legislatively, I will keep voting for every War Powers Resolution that comes to the floor and pressing Republican colleagues who once claimed to care about executive overreach.
They were not about to hand that power to one man in Washington.
President Trump has done exactly what the Founders feared. He launched a major military campaign with no authorization for use of military force and no honest case made to the American people.
The Constitution is not subtle on this point. Article I, Section 8 gives Congress, and only Congress, the power to declare war.
The Founders put that pen in our hands on purpose.
They had just fought a revolution against a king who decided on his own when his subjects would bleed.
60 days.
That is how long American forces have been at war with Iran without authorization from the United States Congress.
Today, the clock written into the 1973 War Powers Resolution runs out.
Tomorrow, this war becomes flatly illegal.
Congress must pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. The Court has spoken.
Now the people’s representatives must answer.

Districts that have given millions of Americans a real voice for decades are now at risk. The result will be a Congress that looks less like the country it serves.
The Voting Rights Act was signed by a Democratic president, strengthened under a Republican president, and renewed by the Senate 98 to 0 as recently as 2006.
Ronald Reagan called the right to vote “the crown jewel of American liberties.”
Today that jewel was cracked.
The ruling effectively lets states draw district maps that break apart minority communities and drown out their voices, as long as the state claims it was done for political reasons.
This is not a left or right issue.
The Supreme Court just made it easier for politicians to choose their voters instead of voters choosing their politicians.
In a 6-3 decision today, the Court gutted the Voting Rights Act, the law that for 60 years has protected every American’s right to a fair vote.
The President of the United States, supposedly the toughest guy in any room, apparently can’t handle a late night comedian making fun of him.
The First Amendment was written precisely to stop this. The government does not get to decide which jokes are allowed on television.
The last time the FCC pulled a broadcast license over content was 1969, against a station defending segregation.
That is the company Carr has chosen to keep.
Now he’s threatening the broadcast licenses of ABC stations in eight cities, because the Trumps don’t like Jimmy Kimmel’s jokes.
FCC Chairman Brendan Carr is a bully and a thug.
It would ban these kinds of bets on war, terrorism, and death. Americans should never be able to get rich off the killing of our troops or innocent civilians. Period.
Donald Trump Jr. sits on Polymarket’s advisory board.
That is a huge conflict of interest, and it makes passing a bipartisan fix in Congress really difficult.
But we’re not waiting.
We’re building support for the DEATH BETS Act right now.
The real choice is whether Congress finally does its job: secure the border, fix a broken system, and treat people with dignity.
Pass the Dignity Act.

Their paychecks get taxed every two weeks, but they cannot collect Social Security, they cannot collect Medicare, and they cannot collect food stamps.
So the real choice is not between open borders and cruelty.
According to the conservative Cato Institute, immigrants pay 17 percent more in taxes per capita than the average American and have reduced federal deficits by $14.5 trillion over the last 30 years.
Undocumented immigrants are part of that surplus.
It just terrorizes communities.
And the economic case for cruelty falls apart on contact with the evidence.
