CitizenVectron Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Biden backs new war powers vote in Congress, White House says - POLITICO WWW.POLITICO.COM Facing a bipartisan push to sunset decades-old authorizations, the president will pursue "a narrow and specific framework" to rein in open-ended conflicts. Quote President Joe Biden intends to work with Congress to repeal the war authorizations that have underpinned U.S. military operations across the globe for the past two decades and negotiate a new one that reins in the open-ended nature of America’s foreign wars, the White House said Friday. In a statement to POLITICO, press secretary Jen Psaki said the president wants to “ensure that the authorizations for the use of military force currently on the books are replaced with a narrow and specific framework that will ensure we can protect Americans from terrorist threats while ending the forever wars.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CayceG Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 I will not be holding my breath, but this is at least significant in terms of him actually saying it. Let's see if it happens, and if it gets replaced with something just as bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
