Title: Reporting Matters in Iraq Amendment

Vote Smart's Synopsis:

Vote to adopt an amendment that requires the President to report to Congress every three months on the United States policy and military operations in Iraq including estimated dates of phase out and redeployment until the last US combat brigade returns to the United States.

Highlights:

  • Expresses the sense of the Senate that 2006 should be "a period of significant transition to full Iraqi sovereignty" and this should create the conditions for the redeployment of forces from Iraq.
  • Expresses the sense of the Senate that the Presidential Administration needs to explain a strategy for "successful completion of the mission in Iraq".
  • Expresses the sense of the Senate that the "United States military forces should not stay in Iraq indefinitely and the people of Iraq should be so advised".
