resolution now extends authorization to the president's order to assassinate a foreign leader from iran. yet that is precisely what the white house would have you believe. this aumf is obsolete and it's far past time that congress make crystal clear to the administration, our allies, and our adversaries, as well as our constituents the circumstances under which we would authorize engagement by our men and women in uniform. the lee amendment repeals a misguided aumf that has had disastrous consequences. and it reasserts congress' article 1 authorities as provided and mandated by the
