Congress approves bill barring presidents from unilaterally exiting NATO
Friend,
Last week, Congress passed the Fiscal Year 2024 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). I’m proud to share with you that this NDAA contained a number of bills I championed.
One of them is a bipartisan piece of legislation that I penned -- and both the Senate and House passed -- that would prevent any U.S. President from unilaterally pulling out of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO).
NATO has never been stronger -- and it’s also never been more important. With the ongoing war in Ukraine and turmoil across the globe, we must reaffirm our commitment to this critical alliance.
Not only does this bill shore up alliances with our partners in NATO, but it also reaffirms our commitment to global security.
My legislation prevents any U.S. president from making unilateral moves to withdraw from this alliance -- because democracy requires that the people weigh in on decisions for the country, including foreign policy.
