"Senator Flake and I have introduced an authorization for military action against ISIS, al-Qaeda, and the Taliban to replace 2001 and 2002."
"The President, just like President Obama, believes he has the legal authority he needs under the 2001 AUMF to fight ISIS, al-Qaeda, and other terrorist groups, and I agree."
"it is time for Congress to have a public debate and vote about an authorization for U.S. military action against non-state terrorist groups."
"I do not think we can kill more than we create in the process, so ultimately there is going to have to be another way that involves some diplomacy, some discussion."
