Applaud Americans Standing Up for Peace and the Constitution

Across the country, people are showing up to defend peace, democracy, and the rule of law. This weekend, hundreds of Americans took to the streets in cities coast to coast to protest Donald Trump’s unilateral military intervention in Venezuela — a bold act of civic engagement in the face of reckless escalation and unconstitutional war-making.

From San Francisco to Chicago, New York to Seattle, demonstrators raised their voices to say what our Constitution makes clear: no president has the authority to launch military action without Congress. Protesters stood in solidarity with civilians who bear the real cost of war, rejected violence carried out in their name, and demanded accountability for decisions that risk lives, destabilize regions, and undermine international law.

These protests reflect the best of democracy — ordinary people refusing to stay silent, insisting that peace, human rights, and constitutional limits matter. At a moment of global uncertainty, Americans are reminding leaders that war is not inevitable, dissent is patriotic, and the public still has a say.

Add your name to applaud the protesters standing up for peace, constitutional accountability, and a foreign policy rooted in human dignity — not unilateral force.
