Statement of Rep. Danny K. Davis on U.S. Drone Strike at Iraq Airport

01/03/20

The Administration’s January 2, 2020 rash, provocative drone strike at the Baghdad airport which killed Iranian General Qassem Soleimani was taken without Congressional authorization or consultation and represents a reckless escalation of tensions between the United States and Iran and threatens to inflame conflict across the Middle East.  The erratic statements and actions of the Administration has escalated U.S. - Iranian relations into a cycle of conflict with the potential to spiral rapidly out of control.  It is now imperative for the Congress to rein in this President’s ill-considered, swaggering military adventurism and assert its Constitutional responsibility on the making of war.
