Senator Coons Says Congress Must Approve Any Strike on Iran

Senator Chris Coons responded to a question from Pulse Correspondent Daniel Compatangelo on U.S. policy toward Iran, emphasizing that any military strike must receive congressional approval. Coons said the administration is not inclined to brief or consult Congress before potential action, despite long standing expectations of legislative oversight. He added that Secretary Marco Rubio, now serving as national security advisor and secretary, understands the importance of congressional consultation and should follow through on that responsibility.
