Peace Action: Working for Peace Since 1957 FacebookTwitterBlogContact us



With your help, we brought the Iraq war to an end, the Afghanistan war is winding down and we thwarted a war with Syria.  So far, we also have been successful in avoiding a needless war with Iran.

Unfortunately, just as we are in reach of peace with Iran, some in the Senate want to knock us off the ladder.  Please call your Senators now at 855-68-NO-WAR (855-686-6927)* and tell them no new Iran sanctions.

S.1881, also known as the Menendez (D-NJ)-Kirk (R-IL) bill, would punish Iran with new sanctions, despite the U.S. and its allies agreeing not to sanction Iran further while negotiations over its nuclear program are ongoing.

These sanctions may scuttle a promising temporary agreement to freeze Iran’s nuclear program.  If that wasn’t bad enough, unbelievably, the bill states that the U.S. would support an Israeli attack on Iran.

To see if your Senators are cosponsoring this dangerous bill click here. 

Then call both your Senators, toll-free, at 855-68-NO-WAR (855-686-6927)*

If they have supported the bill, express your disappointment and expectation to vote against the bill.

If they haven’t cosponsored the bill, tell them not to support any new sanctions on Iran.

Be sure you call both your Senators now at this crucial time.



Peacefully yours,

Kevin Martin
Executive Director
Peace Action

P.S. Call both your Senators, toll-free, at 855-68-NO-WAR (855-686-6927)* and tell them to give diplomacy a chance and oppose any new sanctions on Iran.
