yota691 Posted March 13, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2021 To prevent a repeat of the Iraq war and striking Syria ... American efforts to withdraw the mandate to use military force from the president Date of publication: 13.03.2021 | 01:00 GMT | Last Updated: 13.03.2021 | 01:02 GMT |world News Reuters US lawmakers from the Democratic Party announced on Friday that they would work within weeks on legislation to amend the mandate for the use of military force that presidents of both parties have used for decades to justify attacks abroad. Representative Gregory Mix said that the Foreign Affairs Committee, which he chairs in the House of Representatives, will begin to discuss the abolition of the "mandate to use military force" that allowed for the war in Iraq in 2002. "I intend to prepare legislation in the Foreign Affairs Committee in the coming weeks to cancel it (the mandate)," Mix said in a video conference with a group of Democrats. Senators are also seeking to return the power to declare war to Congress from the White House. In the wake of air strikes in Syria ordered by President Joe Biden, a bipartisan group on March 3 introduced legislation to repeal the mandate to use military force in Iraq in 2002 and another mandate approved in 1991. The House of Representatives approved last year to revoke the 2002 mandate to use military force, but the measure did not win approval from the then Republican-dominated Senate. The constitution grants the power to declare war to Congress, not the president. This authority changed after Congress approved permits for "the use of military force" that do not expire by a specific date, in decisions related to Iraq and in authorizing the war against al-Qaeda in the aftermath of the attacks of September 11, 2001. Rep. Barbara Lee said at the press conference that "authorizing the use of military force" was used more than 40 times to justify attacks in 19 countries. "The time has come for us to end these never-ending wars," she added. Adam Schiff, head of the House Intelligence Committee, said any new mandate should have a fixed date and apply to specific countries and should be consulted with Congress. The White House had said a few days ago that President Joe Biden believes that legislation "to authorize the use of military force" should be reviewed.
