Enough is enough. Nearly four-and-a-half-months ago, this House voted 370-40 (180 Republicans and 190 Democrats) that if the U.S. engages in sustained combat operations in #Iraq, then the House would need to authorize such actions. We now have nearly 3,000 pairs of boots on the ground in Iraq and we have expanded the war to #Syria. This war began under this Congress – the 113th Congress. It has escalated under the 113th Congress. It has expanded from Iraq to Syria and now to #Turkey under the 113th Congress. It is the responsibility of the 113th Congress to authorize it. It is time for the Leadership of this House to step up to the plate and bring an authorization to the floor to be debated and voted on before we walk out the door next week.
