Campaign Update

With her vote against the War Powers Resolution today, Jen Kiggans put party above country and her own constituents.

Before we commit our sons and daughters to another conflict in the Middle East, Congress should have a voice and the American people deserve transparency. We have seen the costs of endless wars. We owe it to our troops and their families to exhaust every diplomatic option before resorting to military escalation.

As someone who has spent my career caring for veterans and military families, I have serious concerns about the United States being drawn deeper into a regional conflict whose trajectory is increasingly being shaped by decisions made outside our borders. America must make its own decisions based on our national interests, the safety of our service members, and the long-term stability of the region—not simply react to the actions of foreign governments.

Supporting the War Powers Resolution is not about being weak on national security. It is about being serious about it. It is about honoring the sacrifices of those who serve by ensuring that military force is used only after careful consideration and democratic accountability.

As a doctor, I have cared for veterans living with the physical and emotional wounds of war. As your next representative, I will always fight to ensure that decisions about war and peace are made thoughtfully, constitutionally, and with the interests of our service members and military families at the forefront.

Our troops deserve leaders who respect both their service and the Constitution they swear an oath to defend.

- Dr. Nila Devanath For Congress
