Democratic Party

Strongly agree

No, Congress should approve all military conflicts

The Democratic party generally believes that Congress should have a say in authorizing military force, as it is an important check on the executive branch's power. For example, many Democrats supported the War Powers Resolution of 1973, which aimed to limit the President's ability to commit the United States to armed conflict without congressional approval. However, the score is not a full 5 because some Democrats may support limited military action without congressional approval in specific situations.

Disagree

Yes, we must use whatever means necessary to prevent another terrorist attack
