Let me be clear: U.S. military deployment and operations carried out pursuant to the 2002 AUMF officially concluded in 2011. Maintaining this authorization is not only dangerous, but it is irresponsible. Madam Speaker, it is past time to return to diplomacy and end these endless wars, and I urge an ``aye'' vote on H. Con. Res. 83. Mr. McCAUL. Madam Speaker, I yield 1\1/2\ minutes to the gentleman from Mississippi (Mr. Palazzo), who is a Marine veteran of the Persian Gulf war and a current member of the Mississippi National Guard.
