Mike Levin’s Statement on the U.S. Strikes on Iran Carlsbad, CA – Today, Rep. Mike Levin (CA-49) released the following statement in response to the U.S. strikes on Iran: “We cannot allow any president to entangle the United States in another deadly and open-ended war without constitutional authority. “Iran must never obtain a nuclear weapon. Our national security and the safety of our allies demand strength, resolve, and clear strategy. But strength in a democracy begins with the Constitution. “Had the president come to Congress, a majority may very well have authorized a strike. But that is not what has happened. “For the American people, and for every service member now in harm’s way, Congress must debate and approve any use of force. “Chrissy and I are praying for our service members. I will continue to uphold the oath I swore to defend both the Constitution and the security of the United States.” ### Print Email Share Tweet Next Article Previous Article About Serving You News Contact Issues Privacy Policy Twitter Icon Facebook Icon Youtube Icon Bluesky Icon
