Sen. Chris Murphy: In a few minutes I'm heading to the Senate floor to force a vote - tonight - to end the war in Iran

[Passages]

If Republicans won’t hold a debate and vote on this illegal, incompletely run war, then Democrats will. I will be joined on the floor by my Senate allies in this fight.

8. Murphy is a fighter

9. Is this really happening? nt

[Passages]

13. Yes.

I don't have a link to the Senate floor.

Murphy has taken a more aggressive stance since the start of the war than many of his colleagues. He has argued the Senate shouldn’t proceed to any other legislative business until Congress votes on authorizing the use of military force.

And he has repeatedly called for Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to testify before Congress on the ongoing military campaign in Iran. But no such hearings have materialized.

18. My senator and I love him!

[markodochartaigh]

19. Senator Murphy is incredible.

But I believe that he means incompetently.

[Tertullian]

20. Reparations for Islamic Republic or Iran.

Also might be time to begin conversations about how the USA should re-build Islamic Iran and pay the regime some damages.

[JoseBalow]

21. LOL!

[maxsolomon]

23. Never in a million years

will that be debated on the Senate Floor.

[maxsolomon]

22. "Incompletely Run War"?

I think he means Incompetently Run War?

Senators should probably review their tweets before hitting post...

[Passages]

24. Yes. Typo, I think.

30. Autocorrect bites again

25. He is one of the young leaders of our Party and I fully expect him to be a future Presidential nominee.

Newsom has all the attention now but Chris is up and coming.

[Passages]

26. I agree, Murphy has a lot to offer and is determined to go after Trump's corruption.

[CTyankee]

27. And he's young! It's a good look for our party since Newsom gets some negative press.

[JBTaurus83]

29. Murphy has been leading on so many

Of the major issues. I’d gladly support him for higher office.

32. Why isn't Schumer doing this?
