In Rebuke to President Trump, House Approves Measure to Force U.S. Withdrawal From Yemen
Page 1 of 1 • Share
From USA TODAY
This could be the beginning on the U.S. showing its strength again on foreign policy. This is welcome compared to the way we had it two years ago. Let's see if we can keep the momentum up, despite our President.
Just Saying.
Deirdre Shesgreen of USA TODAY wrote:WASHINGTON – The House easily approved a measure Wednesday that would force the Trump administration to end its military support for the Saudi-led war in Yemen.
The vote was a sharp rebuke to Saudi Arabia for its conduct in that conflict and a push-back against the Trump administration's close ties to the kingdom.
The 248-to-177 vote also served as a stinging condemnation for the Saudi government's role in the murder of Jamal Khashoggi and highlighted the growing appetite in Congress for reasserting itself on foreign policy.
"It's historic," said Rep. Ro Khanna, a California Democrat who authored the measure, which invokes Congress' authority under the 1973 War Powers Act. He noted that Congress has never before approved a resolution using that Vietnam-era law, which was designed to limit the president's power to start or escalate military engagement.
