As a result of Trump’s war with Iran, gas prices have jumped nationwide.   Right here in VA-07, families are already seeing it at the pump.    Americans need leadership focused on lowering costs — not reckless decisions that make life more expensive.

We don’t yet know the price tag of Trump’s war of choice with Iran. Some estimates say it could cost $1 BILLION per day. That’s money that could be lowering grocery prices, bringing down prescription drug costs, and helping families afford gas.

Ukraine understands the Shahed drone threat better than anyone — because they’ve faced it night after night while defending their people and their democracy.   As we confront similar threats in the Middle East, Ukraine sharing their expertise shows what real security cooperation looks like.

Farmers are struggling and families are feeling the squeeze.   In this year’s Farm Bill, Republicans refused to address Trump’s tariffs, failed to reverse SNAP cuts, denied emergency aid to farmers at risk of losing their farms, and that’s just the beginning.   This bill doesn’t meet the moment.

As I told Jim Sciutto, Congress has a constitutional duty to step in and check this president’s war of choice.    Our job is to protect American lives, defend the Constitution, and keep our service members out of forever wars.   I voted YES on the War Powers Resolution.
Congressman Eugene Vindman@repvindman.bsky.socialMar 5(source)
Under Kristi Noem, the Department of Homeland Security became increasingly aggressive and willing to push the boundaries of the law.   It’s long past time that she was fired.   But accountability can’t stop with one person. We must hold ICE accountable and work towards commonsense reforms.
Congressman Eugene Vindman@repvindman.bsky.socialMar 5(source)
Pete Hegseth’s comments on the deaths of six U.S. service members were disgusting and despicable. Six brave Americans are dead — and the Secretary of Defense is worried about how it makes the president look. Absolutely vile.

I voted to demand the House Ethics Committee publicly and immediately release all sexual misconduct reports involving Members of Congress. The public — and the victims — deserve transparency and accountability. Congress cannot hide these reports the way Republicans have hidden the Epstein files.

This morning, I joined fellow veterans in Congress to speak out against Trump's war with Iran.   We cannot keep writing blank checks for conflicts overseas while families here at home are struggling to afford groceries and gas.   Trump must put the needs of Americans first.
Congressman Eugene Vindman@repvindman.bsky.socialMar 3(source)
Costs at home are skyrocketing.   And you know what else would come at a staggering price? A war with Iran.   Instead of concentrating on bringing down costs, we are drifting toward an open-ended conflict in the Middle East.    The American people deserve better.
Congressman Eugene Vindman@repvindman.bsky.socialMar 1(source)
I am heartbroken for the service members we’ve lost and for the loved ones they leave behind. As an Iraq War veteran, I know the weight of losing even one American in uniform. My thoughts are with their families and with all our brave service members serving in harm’s way.

BREAKING: The Pentagon says three U.S. service members have been killed and five seriously wounded in hostilities with Iran
Congressman Eugene Vindman@repvindman.bsky.socialFeb 28(source)
But the decision to go to war rests with Congress because the Founders knew such consequential decisions require the assent of the people. President Trump has ignored that obligation again, and I dread it will lead to another war in the Middle East that the American people do not want.
Congressman Eugene Vindman@repvindman.bsky.socialFeb 28(source)
The Iranian regime is evil. They have brutally suppressed their own people — most recently murdering tens of thousands of their own citizens demanding freedom — and long sponsored terrorist attacks across the world. My twin brother, Alex, was wounded by an Iranian IED while serving in Iraq.
Congressman Eugene Vindman@repvindman.bsky.socialFeb 28(source)
President Trump has exposed our troops, citizens, and allies to great risk from Iran in the form of ballistic missiles and terrorist attacks. Make no mistake, American blood and treasure will be consumed in this war of choice.
