Ben Ray Lujan: Congress should reassert authority over foreign policy

Congress should reassert its authority to oversee and conduct oversight of our nation's foreign policy. In this Congress, I voted for an amendment to finally retire the 2001 Authorization of the Use of Military Force, which has been used to justify war and military actions in the Middle East for far too long. To protect future generations from an endless cycle of unsupported conflict, I believe that any future AUMFs must include a sunset clause and a clear and specific expression of objectives.
