A lawmaker opened with condolences for the family of the seventh soldier killed, criticized the president's approach to the conflict, and said Congress "cannot stand on the sidelines." He said the war has not been authorized by Congress, noted a recent War Powers vote in which 219 members opposed (as described in the segment), said the conflict could last a year, and announced he will bring a War Powers Act privileged resolution in about 60 days; he also urged use of "the power of the purse" and expressed opposition to further funding without a plan.
