Lawmakers Applaud Obama Seeking Congressional Authorization on Syria - ABC News
“Under the Constitution, the responsibility to declare war lies with Congress. We are glad the president is seeking authorization for any military action in Syria in response to serious, substantive questions being raised. In consultation with the president, we expect the House to consider a measure the week of September 9th. This provides the president time to make his case to Congress and the American people,” the House Republican leadership, including House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., and Conference Chair Cathy McMorris Rodgers, R-Wash., wrote in a joint statement
Speaker Boehner
Majority leader Cantor
Minority Leader McConnel
Majority Whip McCarthy
Conference Chair Rodger.
...even Ted Cruz.
they all support Obama's decision.
when we are about to launch a military strike that could lead to a much larger war and possible WW3, Congress needs to be behind the action 100%.
NO President should be able to launch an action that could bring the world into great chaos, without the backing of Congress.
Obama is doing the right thing. The GOP is right to support his decision.
