I strongly support our men and women in uniform and their families who sacrifice so much for our country. It is critical that Congress reclaims its authority when it comes to decisions about putting these men and women in harms way. Unfortunately, under Administrations of both parties, that important responsibility has been severely undermined The House passed provisions help restore Congress Constitutional authority and responsibility to the American people to debate the use of our military forces to engage in war. Retaining those provisions in a final bill will restore a critical check on reckless military action andensure that decisions to use U.S. military force are properly debated and considered by Congress. f t # e | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
