I rise in opposition to this amendment. This amendment is to create a new AUMF that does not currently exist. The President has article II powers, and we are defending against Iranian-backed militias in Iraq every day under article II. We do not need this. This is why both the American Legion and the Concerned Veterans for America oppose Graham 14. I urge a ``no'' vote. Let's repeal the Iraq war authorization, not pass a new one. Vote on Amendment No. 14 The PRESIDING OFFICER. The question is on agreeing to the amendment.
