Crow Introduces War Powers Resolution to End Trump’s War with Iran

May 1, 2026 Press Release WASHINGTON — Congressman Jason Crow (D-CO), a former paratrooper and Army Ranger who serves on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence and House Armed Services Committee, introduced a new War Powers resolution to end President Donald Trump’s war of choice with Iran. Crow continues to push his colleagues to reclaim Congress’ authority over war and peace, even as Republicans refuse to rein in this conflict. The resolution was also introduced by Congressman Seth Moulton (D-MA), a fellow veteran and member of the House Armed Services Committee. “Congress must end President Trump’s illegal war of choice with Iran. His war has cost the lives of U.S. servicemembers, raised prices for Americans at home, damaged our alliances, and made us less safe,” said Congressman Crow. “The President is spending tens of billions of taxpayer dollars on Middle East conflicts as Americans back home can’t afford gas and are losing their health care. Congress must end this conflict now.” “As veterans, we know firsthand the cost of war,” said Congressman Seth Moulton . “We also know that military force is not always the answer. Brute force will not reopen the Strait of Hormuz. We have already lost 13 Americans in this conflict, and we cannot continue to send our troops into harm’s way without a strategy. We are introducing this resolution because the American people deserve a say in how their military is used, and it is clear that this reckless war of choice must end.” Crow has repeatedly condemned Trump’s illegal war of choice in Iran and supported numerous War Powers resolutions to end the war. As an Army Ranger who grew up in a working class family and served in Iraq and Afghanistan, Crow saw firsthand the repercussions of forever wars on servicemembers and hardworking Americans . He has also demanded answers on civilian deaths related to the war, including a U.S. strike on an Iranian girls’ elementary school where at least 175 civilians, many of them children, were killed. ### Issues : National Security
