A new 30-second advertisement released Sunday from the liberal advocacy group MoveOn urges Congress to reject a resolution authorizing military action in Syria.

“So what should America expect if we rush into Syria­­ alone, with no real plan for the consequences?” the ad’s narrator said. “We already know: It gets worse. Congress: The majority of Americans oppose missile strikes in Syria.”

The group said the ad will run this week on MSNBC with a ” heavy rotation” around President Barack Obama’s scheduled address Tuesday. A poll released Monday showed that while a large majority of Americans believe the Assad regime used chemical weapons against its own people — the central part of the administration’s case for military force — public skepticism toward intervention still runs high.
