Adam Schiff, a U.S. Congressman representing California’s 30th district, posted a series of messages on April 30, 2026, focusing on the War Powers Act and urging adherence to legal requirements for military engagement.
In one post from April 30, Schiff stated: “The War Powers Act is clear. If Congress has not authorized going to war, the President must withdraw U.S. forces after 60 days. Senators on both sides of the aisle have acknowledged this. Today, we must abide by the law and end this war.”
Other tweets from Schiff on the same day included this message and this additional post, though their content was not detailed in the available data.
Schiff has represented California’s 30th district since 2001, succeeding James E. Rogan in Congress. Before his current role, he served in the California Senate between 1996 and 2000. Born in Framingham, Massachusetts in 1960 and currently residing in Burbank, Schiff holds degrees from Stanford University (BA) and Harvard University (JD).
The War Powers Act referenced by Schiff is a federal law intended to check the president’s power to commit U.S. forces to armed conflict without congressional consent.
