Mark Warner: “As I read this amendment, I find it could be interpreted as precluding the ability to enforce the existing resolutions…”

On the recordOctober 10, 2002
As I read this amendment, I find it could be interpreted as precluding the ability to enforce the existing resolutions, namely 688, the no-fly zone. If the Senator wants a few minutes to study and reflect on that, I would like to have the Senator think this through. That is one very serious shortcoming. In other words, for 11 years we have been enforcing the no-fly zone, but as I read this, it could be construed as stopping that. I make that point.
