The People's Email Network Last 25 Messages Transmitted Log Go Back Rescind the 2001 AUMF ********** [205608:101117] T.E., Brush Prairie, WA The story behind this was never valid. The countries we have moved against were not those involved in the 9/11 attack. Most were Saudi Arabian, which is still tied closely to world wide terrorism, yet we continue to operate as if they are our good buddies. Stop this FRAUD! ********** [213533:071617] J.V., Austin, TX This is really good news--Three cheers for the House Appropriations Committee, and let's hear some vigorous and rational debate on this subject! ********** [130724:071517] D.G., Los Angeles, CA Stop the killing, stop the madness, use your words for peace. ********** [195145:071417] L.S., Reserve, NM Endless war simply to keep the munitions, vehicles, planes, etc. companies humming is NOT smart and is an incredible waste of resources, people, and the earth. Please STOP all wars. Why in heavens name are we helping the Saudis bomb Yemen? I have never been threatened by a Yemini. And singling out Quatar because Trump's son-in-law didn't get a loan for his real estate deal is absurd. For all the money we have spent on wars in the middle east, every human on this planet could have a home, food and a decent education. STOP WARS NOW, PLEASE ! ********** [155926:071217] J.L., Redlands, CA We should have gotten out 15 years ago, no authorized use of force should last more than two years, no authorized use of force should extend beyond the following congress (2-3 years), no authorization of force should extend beyond a limited time into a following Presidential term, no use of force should extend beyond specific boundaries, and false grounds for involvement, intentional or not ought to be grounds for revocation of the resolution. ********** [155926:071217] J.L., Redlands, CA We should have gotten out 15 years ago, no authorized use of force should last more than two years, no authorized use of force should extend beyond the following congress (2-3 years), no authorization of force should extend beyond a limited time into a following Presidential term, no use of force should extend beyond specific boundaries, and false grounds for involvement, intentional or not ought to be grounds for revocation of the resolution. ********** [181539:071117] R.K., Denver, CO Using force in any action is a major decision. Authorization to use force should be always based on individual situations, and as a last resort. ********** [122309:071017] P.R., North Bend, OR Congress needs to follow the Constitution and not give the President a blank check to essentially declare war any time he feels like it...especially with unhinged current occupant of the White House. Rescind the 2001 Authorization to Use Military Force as soon as possible! ********** [004352:071017] W.S., Santa Monica, CA No President should have the power conferred by the AUMF, but especially not one severely lacking in impulse control, judgment and critical strategic thinking. ********** [175622:070917] M.P., Laguna Hills, CA We need to move away from a permanent war economy. This can be one step closer to that happening. Thank you. ********** [113834:070917] G.S., Golden, CO It's way, way overdue that you take back your power! ********** [194732:070817] R.P., Oklahoma City, OK Do you really want someone that makes rash decisions about what he puts on Twitter to continue that with weapons of war? ********** [194043:070817] G.M., Royalston, MA I am completely in favor of rescinding the AUMF. Most especially at this time where I fear for my grandchildrens future and our present. With the unpredictable Mr Trump holding the safety of our Democracy and the world in his hands. ********** [140331:070817] K.D., Brooksville, FL I'm Sick of dark money and corporate money infesting America's government. A small cure would be a single payer health insurance that can also tell big pharma where to go with their sky high prices. Give America better health=SINGLE PAYER plan. ********** [135754:070817] P.M., Spring Hill, FL This country is so corrupt its disgusting. All because some greedy politicians decided to sell out America. SICK. Gain some integrity. ********** [102105:070817] A.R., Fort Bragg, CA Stop the endless wars all over, causing refugees and destruction. ********** [101239:070817] S.L., Bethesda, MD The 2001 AUMF was been used to justify the wars that continue to disrupt the middle east. Hasn't it done enough damage? Get rid of it! ********** [001027:070817] N.H., Lansing, MI I strongly urge you to OPPOSE our endless, unjust, unnecessary, and fiscally-irresponsible wars and military actions in the Middle East including Afghanistan, Iraq (again), Syria, Yemen, and Libya (again). Whenever and wherever we intervene with our military, sell weapons, or support rebels, we make things WORSE. War is NOT the Answer. ********** [001008:070817] N.H., Lansing, MI I strongly urge you to OPPOSE our endless, unjust, unnecessary, and fiscally-irresponsible wars and military actions in the Middle East including Afghanistan, Iraq (again), Syria, Yemen, and Libya (again).

Barbara Lee has set a good example, and I applaud the committee for setting the stage for a meaningful debate on this essential responsibility of Congress. ********** Go Back
