Is not entitled: Congressmen want to ban the President of the USA to dispose of nuclear weapons

The authors of the bill Ed Marki and Ted Ley believe that Congress only has a constitutional obligation to declare a war and decide whether nuclear weapons are required. US lawmakers propose to limit the powers of the current President Joe Biden to use nuclear weapons. This was reported by the press service of Senator Ed Marky, Democrat from Massachusetts.

The text of the bill, which limits the powers of the President in the nuclear sphere, was prepared by Ed Marki and his colleague Congressman Ted Leu (represented by California). They propose to ban any US President to strike a nuclear stroke without pre-approval of Congress. "No president has the right or constitutional authority to unilaterally declare war, not to mention the first nuclear strike," said Ed Marki, commenting on his legislative initiative.

In turn, Ted Ley stated that only Congress has a constitutional obligation to declare a war and decide whether nuclear weapons were required. The text of the law presented by politicians states that nuclear weapons have a unique power. It is able to instantly kill millions of people, create long -term health and environmental effects around the world, directly blow up the global world and end the United States on nuclear blows.

It should be noted that the congressmen first introduced a similar bill to Congress in 2016, but then it was never approved. We will remind, on April 10 it became known that the US is starting with nuclear restraint. According to the Armed Forces command, this event is not a response to the actions of a country, and the locals were warned about the activation of bombing flights. We also wrote that on April 6, the Kremlin explained why Russian nuclear weapons in Belarus needed.
