Friend,
We’ve been at war in Afghanistan for 18 years now—to this very day.
That’s why I try to highlight every time an American servicemember makes the ultimate sacrifice in our overseas operations—these wars have real, undeniable costs. For all of us who have fought there, let’s not forget about this.
For over a decade, Congress has punted its constitutional responsibility to authorize the use of force. This isn’t just about Afghanistan. Last year, American forces engaged in combat operations in 14 different countries. Without revisiting the authorization to go to war on a regular basis, our leaders are letting our military and all of us down.
When I’m in the Senate, I’m going to work to change that, once and for all.
If servicemembers have the courage to put their lives on the line on foreign soil, then our elected leaders owe it to them to at least debate whether we should be there.
Add your name and join me in calling on Congress to live up to its constitutional duty to debate and vote on military action:

When people used to ask me, “Amy, what can I do to help the troops?” I always say, demand that your senator do his/her job and authorize (or not) the use of force in the places we are sending them to fight. Because then, at the very least, we will have debated whether that fight was worth the cost of their lives.
Thank you,
Amy
