This isn’t about America’s 250th or honoring our veterans. It’s about Donald Trump’s ego - and we're going to stop it.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govApr 10(source)

While Americans worry about skyrocketing costs and another endless war, President Trump is focused on a taxpayer-funded vanity project that would choke traffic, block our skyline, and tower over sacred ground where those who served our nation are buried, including my own parents and sister.

New: Trump officials formally unveil designs for president's planned 250-foot triumphal arch It would bear golden inscription — "One Nation Under God" — and be flanked by four golden lions Military veterans have sued to stop the project, saying it would harm views of Arlington National Cemetery

For nearly 50 years, the Taiwan Relations Act (TRA) has protected Taiwan’s democratic aspirations, strengthened a mutually beneficial economic partnership, and supported Indo-Pacific stability. An example what thoughtful US foreign policy can achieve. #TRA47

Today, House Democrats tried to bring another War Powers Resolution to the floor. Republicans blocked us. As gas prices soar and troops are put in harm’s way, the GOP continues to be complicit in this reckless war.

New Dems have a clear message for Speaker Johnson: bring a War Powers Resolution to the floor and end Trump's reckless war in Iran.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govApr 9(source)

Just this week, Trump threatened to “obliterate” a country of 90 million people then announced a 'ceasefire' that hasn't stopped the fighting. Yesterday was the deadliest day of this war. My Republican colleagues must return to DC and pass a War Powers Resolution to end it.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govApr 9(source)

My Democratic colleagues and I showed up on the House floor today to do our job and defend Congress’s Constitutional war powers. Republicans refused to even recognize our resolution. They’re choosing this war, and Trump’s violence and chaos.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govApr 9(source)

The "Peace President" who promised the American people he would end all wars is boasting about our military looking forward to "its next conquest" while my Republican colleagues remain on vacation with no plans to rein in his madness.

Trump’s reckless decision to wage war against Iran could leave Americans paying higher gas prices for years. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/08/b...

It Will Take Months to Get Oil and Gas Flowing out of the Persian Gulf

The U.S. must immediately make clear to Israel that the ceasefire agreement is not and cannot be functional without a ceasefire in Lebanon. The American people want this war to end and bombing downtown Beirut is not a path to peace.

We have an unhinged president threatening “a whole civilization will die tonight.” Republicans in Congress hold the power to stop Trump today and protect our country and service members. What are they waiting for?

Beyer Demands Speaker Johnson Reconvene House as Trump Escalates Sick, Murderous Threats

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govApr 7(source)

The House cannot continue to stand idly by as this crisis deepens. I again call on Speaker Johnson to immediately bring the House back into session and ensure that this President does not further dishonor our country by carrying out this blatantly illegal and immoral threat. 12/

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govApr 7(source)

The American people are under no illusion about the gravity of this moment. They know this is not normal, not justified, and not making us safer. They expect their elected representatives to decisively act, not retreat into silence out of blind allegiance to the President. 11/

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govApr 7(source)

Now, the President is emboldened and untethered from consequences. He is escalating threats that, if carried out, would constitute egregious war crimes committed on behalf of the United States government and the American people. This moment demands urgent congressional intervention. 10/

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govApr 7(source)

And Republicans in the House and Senate have pulled out all the stops on multiple occasions to defeat War Powers Resolutions that would have stopped this war. 9/

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govApr 7(source)

The message from Secretary Hegseth and President Trump has been a clear and consistent endorsement of impunity for criminal acts under the color of our flag. 8/

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govApr 7(source)

When my colleagues who served in uniform sought to remind their fellow servicemembers of their duty to oppose illegal orders, the administration's response was to attempt to prosecute and sanction them. 7/

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govApr 7(source)

Congress failed to stop unlawful boat strikes in the Caribbean that have killed dozens, many of them innocent fishermen, and in doing so allowed a dangerous precedent to take hold. 6/
