We do not live in a country where the president is above the law.
And we can’t let them turn us into one.
We have to demand witnesses. We have to demand evidence. We have to demand a fair trial.
.@RepBarbaraLee and I are saying:
1. Any current AUMFs do NOT cover a war with Iran.
2. We should repeal the 2002 AUMF anyway, because that was a disaster.
3. The President *must* come to Congress before he takes any offensive military action, or uses any Pentagon $$.
Using @AlanDersh argument I think robbing a bank is good for the interest of the people i represent (my family), so I should be able to rob a bank legally. #ImpeachmentHearings#dershowitzlogic
We can't let President Trump drag us into a war with Iran that Congress never intended to authorize – that's why we're voting today on my bill to repeal the 2002 Iraq AUMF. #StopEndlessWar
The 2002 AUMF never should have been on the books in the first place. Tomorrow, the House can come together in a bipartisan manner to pass my bill repealing this outdated and unnecessary authorization! #StopEndlessWar
Thank you?
Now is the time to come together in a bipartisan manner and end our endless wars in the Middle East.
I invite my colleagues to vote their HEART and support @RepBarbaraLee and my amendments tomorrow.
