Take Action: Impeach Trump for His Unconstitutional War on Iran

On Saturday February 28th, Donald Trump initiated war on Iran. He admitted the likelihood of Americans being killed for his unconstitutional actions. The Constitution gives the authority to declare war to Congress for precisely this purpose. No one man should have the authority to put American lives in danger. In fact, within 48 hours American soldiers have already been killed for this unconstitutional war. For this, Donald Trump must be impeached. (This article of impeachment is based on H.Res 537, which Rep. Al Green TX-09 brought to a vote after the first strikes on Iran in May of 2025)

Hello, 

In June 2025, Trump usurped constitutionally-mandated war powers to unilaterally strike Iran. Congress later voted to table H.Res 537, Impeaching Donald J. Trump, President of the United States, for those high crimes and misdemeanors.

This inaction has emboldened the president and his administration to instigate war with Iran on 28 Feb, 2026.  Does your boss support the impeachment of Donald J. Trump for the repeated usurpation of War Powers? We have enclosed an updated version of H.Res 537 for your consideration and introduction to the floor of the House under Rule IX. 

Your constituent,

ARTICLE OF IMPEACHMENT

Impeaching Donald J. Trump, President of the United States, for high crimes and misdemeanors.

Resolved, That Donald J. Trump, President of the United States, is impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors, and that the following articles of impeachment be exhibited to the Senate:

Articles of impeachment exhibited by the House of Representatives of the United States of America in the name of itself and of the people of the United States of America, against Donald J. Trump, President of the United States of America, in maintenance and support of its impeachment against him for high crimes and misdemeanors.

ARTICLE I: ABUSE OF PRESIDENTIAL POWERS BY DISREGARDING THE SEPARATION OF POWERS—DEVOLVING AMERICAN DEMOCRACY INTO AUTHORITARIANISM BY UNCONSTITUTIONALLY USURPING CONGRESS’S POWER TO DECLARE WAR

In his conduct of the office of President of the United States, Donald J. Trump, in violation of his constitutional oath faithfully to execute the office of President of the United States and, to the best of his ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States, and in violation of his constitutional duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, abused the powers of the presidency when he disregarded the doctrine of separation of powers by usurping Congress’s power to declare war and ordered the United States military to bomb another country without the constitutionally-mandated congressional authorization or notice to Congress.

On February 28, 2026, the United States joined the State of Israel in initiating attacks on Iran, ostensibly to incite regime change by targeting Iran’s leadership and exhorting the people of Iran to “seize control of your destiny.” At no point did Iran pose any imminent threat to the United States.

Also on February 28, 2026, Iran retaliated, and the conflict has now escalated between Israel, US bases, and Iran. President Trump showed a callous disregard for U.S. service members saying “American heroes may be lost and we may have casualties but that often happens in war.” This is an illegal declaration of war as President Trump failed to seek prior congressionally-mandated authorization for the use of military force. Congressional leaders were not appropriately briefed or notified of the attack plans despite foreign leaders being given advance notice of the planned U.S. military action.

President Trump’s unilateral, unprovoked use of force without congressional authorization or notice constitutes an abuse of power when there was no imminent threat to the United States, which facilitates the devolution of American democracy into authoritarianism. Trump is an authoritarian president who has instigated an attack on the United States Capitol, denied persons due process of the law, assembled men to revolutionize the government by force, deploying federal agents to invade American cities and repeatedly and egregiously violate the constitutional amendments of the American people. Donald J. Trump is a fundamental threat to American democracy.

Article I, Section 8, Clause 11 of the United States Constitution grants Congress the sole power to declare war: “[The Congress shall have the Power…] To declare War…” At the time, the Framers of the Constitution emphasized the goal of limiting the monarchical power of any single individual person to take a country to war over personal whims and preferences—no constitutional exception exists.

In starting his illegal and unconstitutional war with Iran without the constitutionally-mandated consent of Congress or appropriate notice to Congress, President Trump acted in direct violation of the War Powers Clause of the Constitution. President Trump has devolved and continues to devolve American democracy into authoritarianism by disregarding the separation of powers and now, usurping congressional war powers.

In all of this, Donald J. Trump has abused the powers of the presidency in a manner contrary to his trust as President, has become a threat to American democracy, subverted our constitutional government, and devolved democracy into authoritarianism, to the great prejudice of the cause of law and justice, and to the manifest injury of the people of the United States.

Wherefore Donald J. Trump, by such conduct, warrants impeachment and trial, and removal from office.
