Congressman Matt Gaetz introduced a new War Powers resolution on Thursday that would direct the Biden Administration to immediately remove U.S. troop deployments in Syria.
On the heels of a dropped sex trafficking investigation by the Department of Justice, Congressman Gaetz (R-Fla.) filed a House resolution that would end the U.S. Military presence in Syria. According to Gaetz, the resolution was designed to force President Joe Biden to remove U.S. armed forces from Syria no later than 15 days following the resolution’s adoption.
Congress has never authorized the use of military force in Syria. The United States is currently not in a war with or against Syria.
If Joe Biden wants to keep U.S. troops in the Syrian conflict, he should have to explain to us why, what the goal is, https://t.co/shbaFZBjfj… https://t.co/0crT0gFNs8
