Sen. Tim Kaine Introduces War Powers Resolution To Prevent War With Iran [View all]
"I am deeply concerned that the recent escalation of hostilities between Israel and Iran could quickly pull the United States into another endless conflict,” Kaine said.
“The American people have no interest in sending servicemembers to fight another forever war in the Middle East. This resolution will ensure that if we decide to place our nation’s men and women in uniform into harm’s way, we will have a debate and vote on it in Congress,” the Virginia senator added.
War Powers resolutions are privileged, meaning Kaine’s bill will force the Senate to consider and vote on the measure quickly.
