A new vote in Congress over war powers is raising questions about the limits of presidential authority and the role lawmakers play in directing U.S. military action. Senior Legal Fellow and legal expert at Advancing American Freedom, Hans Von Spakovsky, says many critics are misinterpreting how the Constitution divides war-making responsibilities between Congress and the executive branch. He explains why the latest effort on Capitol Hill may misunderstand long-standing legal precedent and historical practice, and discusses what the debate could mean for future military decisions, presidential authority, and the balance of power in Washington.
