These Iraq War Supporters Are Still in Congress
By Hunter DeRensis | The Libertarian Institute | March 18, 2023
On March 19, 2003 the United States began its military invasion of Iraq. The Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq passed Congress in October 2002, with 296 congressmen and 77 senators voting in favor of giving President George W. Bush carte blanche authority to decide if and when to go to war.
Twenty years later, this is a list of members of Congress who voted for the AUMF and are still in office.
There are sixteen congressmen, including nine Republicans and seven Democrats.
- Ken Calvert (R-CA)
- Darrell Issa (R-CA)
- Mike Simpson (R-ID)
- Hal Rogers (R-KY)
- Sam Graves (R-MO)
- Chris Smith (R-NJ)
- Frank Lucas (R-OK)
- Joe Wilson (R-SC)
- Kay Granger (R-TX)
- Sanford Bishop (D-GA)
- Steny Hoyer (D-MD)
- Stephen Lynch (D-MA)
- Bill Pascrell (D-NJ)
- Adam Schiff (D-CA)
- Brad Sherman (D-CA)
- Adam Smith (D-WA)
There are ten senators, including five Republicans and five Democrats.
- Susan Collins (R-ME)
- Mike Crapo (R-ID)
- Chuck Grassley (R-IA)
- Mitch McConnell (R-KY)
- Lisa Murkowski (R-AK)
- Maria Cantwell (D-WA)
- Tom Carper (D-DE)
- Dianne Feinstein (D-CA)
- Chuck Schumer (D-NY)
- Ed Markey (D-MA)1
These politicians voted for arguably the most unnecessary foreign policy blunder[?] in United States history and incurred no electoral repercussions.

By John Ellwood | TCW Defending Freedom | January 15, 2022
The period 2020-2022 is remembered as the Great Covid Madness.
History has witnessed many periods of mass hysteria including plagues of dancing, witch trials, alien invasion and ghostly apparitions, not to mention the Seattle Windscreen Pitting Epidemic.
