      He’s not theoretically wrong but it is misleading. The War Powers Resolution allows executive branch to take military action for limited period of time before AUMF is required. Congress should take issue with that - not with POTUS actions.https://twitter.com/justinamash/status/984967029663895553 …

      These offensive strikes against Syria are unconstitutional, illegal, and reckless. The next speaker of the House must reclaim congressional war powers as prescribed in Article I of the Constitution. @SpeakerRyan has completely abdicated one of his most important responsibilities.

      That is not what the War Powers Resolution says.https://twitter.com/justinamash/status/983506478605701120?s=21 …

      You’re going to hear and read the false, tired assertion that the War Powers Resolution (or Act) allows the president to take offensive military action without congressional approval for 60-90 days. Here’s why that’s not true:

          I would respectfully counter that the use of chemical weapons - which violates a multitude of international treaties as well as basic human decency and long-standing US foreign policy objectives - would pass muster under cause number three.

          But I do appreciate you raising this issue because it’s one that mainstream media rarely considers. But do believe it is important to clarify that Trump is not stepping out of precedent from his predecessors. The left will try to spin it that way.

          @AndrewHClark, reread the WPR. Rep. Amash's position is clearly established by the text of the law. International agreements do not supplant the Constitution or implementing language thereof, lik3 the WPR.
