Use hearings and oversight on the Iran war

McCollum says that, as chair of the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense, she will hold hearings and ask questions about the administration’s war. She also says she will not provide the Department of Defense with a blank check for the war.

Context: The statement is conditional on Democrats holding a House majority and McCollum serving as subcommittee chair; it refers to the Iran war described as unlawful in the quoted statement.

In their own words

I will hold hearings and I will ask the tough questions
