Lawmakers urge Biden to ask Congress before sending military to Ukraine
By Brad Dress - 02/22/22 07:22 PM EST

A group of lawmakers sent a letter to President Biden on Tuesday amid escalating tensions in Ukraine to remind him that he must seek authorization from Congress before sending in troops or launching military attacks.

The bipartisan group of 43 lawmakers acknowledged that Biden previously said he would not send troops into Ukraine but noted the decision could change.

"If the ongoing situation compels you to introduce the brave men and women of our military into Ukraine, their lives would inherently be put at risk of Russia chooses to invade," the letter reads. "Therefore, we ask that your decisions comport with the Constitution and our nation's laws by consulting with Congress to receive authorization before any such development."

The letter was signed by Reps. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.), Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.), Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) and Warren Davidson (R-Ohio), among others.

Rep. Peter DeFazio (D-Ore.) shared the letter on Twitter, writing that Biden should "follow the Constitution and the law."

After cowardice not seen by American politicians in a time of war, Biden folded like a Cheap suit over Afghanistan.  Now Biden is going to try and convince us he is a lion against Russia, after so many times cozying up to Putin?
i'm not buying the phony baloney posturing they have been up to as of late. Putin and Biden have been planing  what they are now up to.

If this was Trump (which it would not be) they would impeach him again. By now Trump would be up to his 15th impeachment, and based on what Putin has done they would try for the 16th time.

After all, according to the Democrats everything is Trump's fault no matter who is actually to blame.

If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.
