Congress Has Abandoned Its War Powers. Here's What to Do About It. - Oct. 24, 2019

from Deep Dish on Global Affairs · host Oona Hathaway, Brian Hanson, Chicago Council on Global Affairs

The US Congress has not approved a use of force since 2002, when it voted to invade Iraq. "Too many members of Congress are all too happy to abdicate their constitutional responsibility and allow the president to go it alone," explains Oona Hathaway, professor of International Law at Yale Law School. Hathaway joins Deep Dish to lay out a step-by-step plan for Congress to revive its war powers.
