And every American should know that Congress is not giving up on its most basic constitutional right to debate and determine whether US Forces undertake further operations, offensive operations, against the Iranian regime or any other. This resolution, with my amendment, would give senators confidence that a vote on that question will in no way put American troops or our allies at increased risk.” (09:26–09:42)
