Calls Grow to Repeal the 2001 Military Force Authorization

Original: It's Time to Repeal the 2001 Authorization for Use of Military Force

Commentary at Just Security argues the time has come to repeal the 2001 Authorization for Use of Military Force, the congressional measure passed after the September 11 attacks that has underpinned US military operations for more than two decades. Critics say the broad, open-ended authorization has been stretched far beyond its original purpose and that Congress should reclaim its war powers.

Why now: Renewed debate over presidential war powers and outdated military authorizations is prompting calls in Congress to repeal the 2001 AUMF.
