Congress urged to reclaim spending and war powers

Original: Congress can reclaim its spending and war powers by revising two policies

Congress could restore its constitutional authority over federal spending and military action by revising two existing policies, according to an opinion piece in The Hill. The argument contends that lawmakers have ceded key powers to the executive branch over time, and that targeted legislative changes would let Congress reassert control over budgeting and decisions about war.

Why now: Ongoing debates over executive power and congressional authority in US politics have renewed attention to how Congress can take back spending and war powers.
