Statement On Iraq Supplemental Bill Vote
"On March 23rd, I cast a vote for the Iraq Supplemental Bill because, for the first time, it contained binding language to bring the war in Iraq to an end. Today's Iraq Supplemental vote will send a substantially similar bill to the President. The President has said he will veto this measure. In doing so, he will thwart the will of the American people and the majority of the United States Congress. I remain dissatisfied with many provisions of this bill, but all of those issues are overshadowed by the importance of bringing this war to an end. As I did one month ago, today I voted yes' on a bill to begin to end this war."
