Adam Schiff on an Oman War Powers Resolution
Adam SchiffU.S. Senate, California
Statement on filing a resolution to prohibit U.S. armed forces from hostilities in or against Oman
“Donald Trump threatened, and then launched a war with Iran. Donald Trump threatened, and then launched strikes against Venezuela. And last month, Donald Trump threatened strikes against Oman – his next potential target for yet another foreign war. Congress has not authorized any of these commitments of our armed forces. And this resolution will make it clear that the American people and the U.S. Senate reject any additional deployment of our servicemembers for new wars around the globe.”
