Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer announced Wednesday that he will bring up a resolution sometime in the coming months to revoke the 2002 authorization for the use of military force in Iraq.
Schumer cited former President Donald Trump’s use of the AUMF to take out top Iraqi military commander Qassem Soleimani, which he said was carried out “without transparency, without proper notification to Congress, and without a clear strategy.”
