The J6 Committee failed to get intel on the Presidential Decisions that Trump signed so now they're going to try to cancel the war powers that they left in place (they never thought she would lose) that gave President Trump the powers for devolution and compartmentalized secrecy of the Presidential decisions. Now the movie is getting good.
Schumer announces Senate vote to repeal Iraq war powers
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer set up a vote this week to advance a major defense funding bill and said it will include a provision to repeal decades-old Iraq war powers.
The New York Democrat filed cloture on the National Defense Authorization Act, which sets defense spending levels for the next fiscal year. He established a Wednesday vote that will require 60 votes to start debate.
Schumer told lawmakers Monday he'll include an amendment that would repeal the congressional authorization for the use of military force against Iraq, which the House and Senate first granted to President George W. Bush in 2002. The provision would also repeal war powers dating back to the 1991 Gulf War.
The Senate Foreign Affairs Committee advanced the AUMF provision earlier this year with the backing of all Democrats and three Republican votes. Schumer, in a floor speech Monday, said including the AUMF repeal in the defense funding bill was "logical" and that the authorization is outdated nearly a decade after the United States ended military involvement in Iraq.
"An authorization passed in 2002 is no longer necessary in 2021 and in no way will repealing this measure impact our ability to keep Americans safe nor impact our relationship with Iraq," Schumer said.
The House passed its own AUMF repeal in June. It had the backing of 49 Republicans.
