Help help I will make you a brainlist Questions to Consider

On your own separate paper, answer these questions in complete sentences.

1. Read about the war powers listed in the Constitution. Is the Constitution clear when it comes to who is in charge (Congress or the President) during wartime? Why or why not? Give examples.

2. Do you agree or disagree with the limits that the War Powers Resolution puts on the President’s ability to engage in a conflict without Congress declaring war? Why?

3. Do you think that the War Powers Resolution is constitutional? Why or why not?

4. As a group, discuss and create an amendment to the Constitution that clarifies once and for all who’s in charge during wartime. Remember, this is a change to the Constitution, so it should be
written formally. Be sure to address the following issues:

Who should decide to go to war, and how should he/she/they decide?

Can military action happen without a formal declaration of war?

Once a war begins, who is in charge?

d. How is the decision made to end the war and remove U. S. troops?

Although you are writing an amendment together as a group, each group member is responsible for writing the amendment on their paper. Be prepared to present your amendment to the class, to be voted on and passed by a 2/3 majority vote of your classmates!
