Quiver AI Summary

Representative Gregory W. Meeks, the Ranking Member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, issued a statement expressing concerns over the Trump administration's September 2nd strike on a vessel in the Caribbean Sea. He criticized the administration for its "shifting narratives" and lack of legal justification for the action, stating that Congress has the authority to authorize military force.

Meeks demanded clarity on the intelligence behind the strike, questioning the immediate threat to the United States that justified the killing of 11 individuals. He emphasized that unilateral military actions resemble the behavior of authoritarian leaders rather than democratic governance.

He concluded by calling for Congress to reassert its authority over matters of war and peace, warning against allowing unilateral actions that could escalate into broader conflicts without legislative approval.
