Congresswoman Barbara Lee (D-CA13) introduced a bill to repeal the congressional authorizations that allowed the United States to initiate military action against Iraq in 2002. Although primarily symbolic in nature, the bill comes after the introduction of similar Senate legislation by Senator Tim Kaine (D-VA) that sought to repeal military-force authorizations related to the wars against Iraq citing 1991 and 2003.
