The Smile: 6/24

Hi friend,

Happy Tuesday! A group of House Democratic military veterans, many of whom served in Iraq and Afghanistan, are backing a resolution to limit President Trump’s military authority after his unauthorized strikes on Iran. Their message: never again should America stumble into war without debate or accountability.

👉 Add your name to applaud these Democrats for standing up for the Constitution and preventing unchecked war powers!

Also in today’s good news: Senator Schiff introduces a bill to ban crypto for presidents, activists are reuniting with loved ones, and Democrats are turning the Kennedy Center into a Pride celebration.

Let’s dig into the bright spots! 💛
