Janice Schakowsky: “Where is the plan? Do you have a plan that you can present to us or is this another pie-in-the-sky promise?”

The American people overwhelmingly do not want another war in the Middle East, and the last thing our country needs is to be drawn into a conflict that would cost lives and destabilize the region.

I fought for and continue to defend the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), which proved that diplomacy, not war, can constrain Iran’s nuclear program and keep Americans safe.

We must return to diplomacy, uphold Congress’s authority, and prioritize the safety of U.S. service members and civilians above all else.

Abandoning that approach in favor of reckless escalation puts lives, security, and regional stability at risk.
