The House of Representatives on Wednesday approved a war powers resolution aimed at ending unauthorized U.S. military involvement in Iran, marking the most significant congressional challenge yet to President Donald Trump’s handling of the conflict.

The measure, sponsored by Rep. Gregory Meeks (D-N.Y.) invokes the 1973 War Powers Resolution and would require the administration to obtain explicit authorization from Congress before continuing hostilities against Iran, except in cases involving an imminent threat to the United States. The vote followed months of growing bipartisan concern over a conflict that began in.

Americans for Limited Government President Rick Manning today issued the following statement urging opposition to the “American Innovation and Choice Online Act”:

“I have a great deal of respect for Representative Ken Buck, (R-Colo.), but I cannot understand why he would be pushing a Democrat anti-trust bill which does not include prohibitions on social media censorship of conservative viewpoints. Yet that is exactly what Representative Buck is doing in his on-going support for the ‘American Innovation and Choice Online Act’ (AICOA).

“Buck himself admitted that President Joe Biden will not sign a bill that, ‘harms the kind of censorship that the Democrats have appreciated in the last few years.’

“In plain terms, Biden won’t sign any bill that stops social media censorship of conservative thought. Not a surprise given that this administration (Department of Homeland Security) has admitted to working with social media companies to censor speech related to 2020 election security and COVID on their website. And it is this same agency which was pushing to have a Disinformation Governance Board to coordinate government wide social media censorship efforts of conservatives.

“So the question seems obvious. Why would any Republican support without precondition giving the federal government more power over social media companies knowing that the Biden administration is already leveraging those companies to shutter speech on the right?

“They shouldn’t. Americans for Limited Government urges every member of Congress, including Rep. Ken Buck, to join us in opposing passage of the American Innovation and Choice Online Act.”

    Rep. Buck offered such promise when he first ran for Congress. But like so many in Congress, he seems to have gotten too comfortable and has slipped too far left.

    Buck is another example of the ESSENTIAL NEED for TERM LIMITS!

    The American Innovative and choice online Act is another chapter in Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals” march to Socialism and Communism. That’s what the Democratic Party is all about…. Socialism. So….. put the great Ken Buck from
    Colorado into the Socialist Democratic Party of America where 70% of the Democratic Party are already members.

      Moderation? Do you want me to kiss a “Republican” who supports the Democrats?

    Cowboy

    What the Buck is wrong with these idiots?!?!
    Maybe he’s spending too much time with the modern day three stooges, Kevin “I Just live Nancy (Pelosi)” McCarthy, Linsey Gramnasty, and the worse of the all, Benedict Mitch McConnell.

    Don

    Another sellout RINO trying to protect his cushy job with BS.
